Best Bluetooth dongle??

Ahh, that explains it, thank you very much. Unfortunately I don't have Bluetooth inbuilt in my PC, but I can definitely buy a dongle. Does it need to be specifically a BT 4.0 dongle?

I don't think so, but Bluetooth dongles are so cheap anyway, might as well buy a good one.

Also it's best to put the dongle into a front USB port if you have one as it will provide the best performance

if this is on pc or laptop then it is down to the bluetooth module/dongle not being very good, i had the same issue and had to purchase a descent bluetooth dongle.

no. i am doing it over bluetooth with a bluetooth dongle

The Bluetooth Drivers for the PC, should be downloaded from the PC Bluetooth Dongles Website for the Specific Brand & Model of Dongle you are using on your PC..

adapter lets you connect and should stay connected if you use USB and then go back to the adapter.

Thank you, this is important info, so xbox wireless controller adapter doesn't have this problem.

> Do you by any chance have any other BT capable devices to test and see if it's with the dongle or the controller's BT connection?

I do, but any other device can not be connected through USB, so I can not test this specific problem.

I have this bluetooth dongle now, Atheros AR3011, it is bluetooth 3.0.

Do you have any other bluetooth dongles at hand, eg bluetooth 4.0, 4.1, ... to test this problem?

I don't have any other bluetooth dongles at hand.

Would be good to test this problem with other bluetooth dongles, if it is general problem or if this problem exist only with specific bluetooth dongles, eg lower bluetooth protocol versions.

Thank you for your responses.
