I bought this product as an adaptor to connect to my wireless modem. It does not work because my modem is not blue tooth compatible (its an AT&T modem). Needless to say, I am VERY disappointed after spending $32 on this product and not getting the result i was hoping for. Maybe its “operator error”, but personally, I don’t think so!

I am updating my first assessment of your product. I would give it two stars rather than one because I can get it to do something but it is not doing what I want.
I installed the software and rebooted the computer then plugged in the Bluetooth. I wanted to download pictures from my cell phone to my laptop. The laptop can see the cellphone but I cannot drag and drop any pictures. It has a serial port connection but I cannot access the phone with it. The cellphone shows the laptop and can connect to it but I cannot transfer any pictures. I have to go through quite a bit to get it to connect. If anybody has any hints as to how to make this work I would appreciate it.

Very poor quality product. Package was difficlut to access, CD was damaged and no online support to locate the drivers was available. Do Not Purchase

This USB adapter was a bit on the expensive side but I decided to buy it anyway. But from the time I tried to install the software to trying to connect my Sprint Mogal to my computer…nothing went right. It too several times of installing and uninstalling the software for it to connect to my phone. And when it finally connected…it did so for only a few minutes. The software took away my ability to control my speaker volume so I wasn’t able to listen to any music until the software was uninstalled. All in all…this product was a total waste of money and time. I highly recommend not purchasing this product.

it worked right out of the box. But it was the cause of all the slowness in my computer. after unplugging it, everything was back like normal.
