Bluetooth only 30 kps

[vwgm]

Hi,

I was transfering a mp3 file to my ipaq 1940, using bluetooth and observed the speed to be very slow about 30 kps. I'm using the filetransfer bluetooth protocol from my pc (iogear usb bluetooth)

Am I doing something wrong settings wise or is this normal (hope not) thought bluetooth was good to go at around 700 kps.

Thanks

I noticed the same exact thing on my 4150. I found something that fixed it, though... I kept Bluetoothing things to my SD card. When I tried transferring it to the main memory, it seemed to go MUCH faster. The next day, my SD card got corrupted and lost everything.

But anyway... the moral of the story is to try transferring to the main ROM of the iPAQ. If the file is really too big to store on the main memory, then chances are you'd be better off using the cable for files that big. Worked for me. :D

Cute, but realize the posters in this thread probably have no idea what you're talking about... let's keep that discussion focused in other threads, please. ;)

Yanathin has some good points. Another possibility would be the speed of your BT adapter's file transfer implementation. To the best of my knowledge, the 1940 does not have major BT performance issues like older iPAQs.

Thanks! Feel free to PM me for venting purposes! :wink:

bluetooth is theoretically 1mbit afaik which in real terms would be about 100kb/s. However ive noticed transferring things to the sd card internally is VERY slow (on my 2210), shove the card in a reader and it is much faster

I'm not copying to the sd card, and still get 30 kbs. Are there any settings I can use to speed up ?

Thanks again
