Subject: [Bluez-devel] packet type

hi,
is it possible to force bluez to use a self chosen packet type like DH5? or
will it automatically switch to the best packet type?

Gr,
mark

that is clearly a bug in the firmware, but please remember that packet
type DM1 is always selected.

unless for debugging, don't do this. Let the link manager choose the
right package type, because it knows what works best. The general rule
is to enable all available packet types.

You can set a Mask which packets types the baseband is allowed to use (see
hcid.conf). However, from the allowed packet types the baseband chooses
which one it actually uses . Further, some basenband implementations seems
to interpret this "mask" differently (e.g. when you set the mask to DH5
the baseband also uses all smaller packet types).

Ciao,

Peter
