Reply-To: BlueZ users List-Id: BlueZ users List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" Sender: bluez-users-bounces@lists.sourceforge.net Errors-To: bluez-users-bounces@lists.sourceforge.net oh here i got a little confused, 7 connection for each dongle you mean??.. that means i can connect 15 different BT devices and each device can simultaneously have 7 connections with the Bluez stack??.. My application works on a topology with heterogenious BT devices. Mobiles being the lowest common denominator. So when i talk specifically about mobiles, I can connect 15 mobiles to Bluez with one connection from each(i think mobiles cant have more than one connection at any instance of time). If i can get these informations cleared up first, i can continue with my interesting venture ;). I am planning to circumvent this restriction using multiplexing. I will just let the connections wait, till they get free ;). Let me see how it goes. But someone please correct if i am still misunderstanding the BT constraints. joel.
