Ok. ;-)

I think it's not working for me. Here's my setup:

linux 2.6.2 + USB bluetooth dongle (Actiontec); no other USB devices
connected

# hciconfig -a
hci0:   Type: USB
        BD Address: 00:20:E0:3A:2E:57 ACL MTU: 2000:32  SCO MTU: 64:8
        UP RUNNING PSCAN ISCAN AUTH ENCRYPT

        Name: 'sermons.desiringGod.org-0'
        Class: 0x000104

        HCI Ver: 1.1 (0x1) HCI Rev: 0x322 LMP Ver: 1.1 (0x1) LMP Subver: 0x322
        Manufacturer: Cambridge Silicon Radio (10)

(The default ACL MTU is 192:8; I tried cranking it up to no avail.)

For a poor man's throughput test I'm downloading a 7M mpeg file, both
through Pocket IE and by having Pocket TV stream it from my 100Mbps LAN.
I'm running "nload -o 800 -t 250 xl0" and watching the outgoing avg in
kbit/s.

No matter what I do, the average caps out at about 265kbps. I've tried all
the following in various combinations:

        hcitool cpt ipaqbdaddr dh5
        hcitool cpt ipaqbdaddr dm5
        hciconfig hci0 ptype dh5
        hciconfig hci0 ptype dm5
        hciconfig hci0 aclmtu 2000:32

Running "hcitool cpt ipaqbdaddr dm1" does slow the transfer down, but
nothing gets it going faster than 265kbps. I think I have a good link:

# hcitool rssi 00:04:3E:81:90:E0
RSSI return value: 0
# hcitool lq 00:04:3E:81:90:E0
Link quality: 255
# hcitool tpl 00:04:3E:81:90:E0
Current transmit power level: -8


Does all this mean that my ipaq has a slow UART?
