got a bluetooth dongle for the n96
it's a v 2.0 if that helps
it's on the computer and working fine, the computer sees it and has installed the bits that need instaling
the phone has se it
the phone has onnected to the computer
the phone is on the computer
the phone is automatically connected if it's in range rather than having to be asked to connect
i can start to send stuff to the computer
but then it says connection failed
there is a little green light in the usb dongle that flashes occasionally
