hello,
I am having some issues with my Bluetooth connections. I tested a Bluetooth mouse and it
worked but had an issue, it became laggy after a few seconds of being connected. One would
move the mouse but the movement of the pointer on the screen was noticeably laggy. I also
tried using a bluetooth speaker and experienced a similar issue. The sound produced by the
speaker was slightly behind the video, just slightly behind.
I know that both of these devices (mouse and speakers) work correctly on other PCs. And
the issues I am having on this PC, are also present on my Windows system installed on dual
boot on the same machine.
I'm on a Dell XPS 9550,which I think comes with the Dell Wireless 1830. and lspci
outputs : Broadcom Inc. and subsidiaries BCM43602 802.11ac Wireless
This card provides both Wifi and Bluetooth.
My bootup is showing some messages related to this device, maybe?:
[ 1838.063937] ieee80211 phy0: brcmf_inetaddr_changed: fail to get arp ip table err:-52
[ 4216.272913] ieee80211 phy1: brcmf_psm_watchdog_notify: PSM's watchdog has fired!
Is there any way for me to test the Bluetooth on this laptop to see if I have a damaged
card?
I need to know if I need to buy this replacement card. Wifi is working OK, Bluetooth is
definitely not ok (even on Windows).
I'm on Fedora 34 Workstation.
If I decide to order a new Card, I think I could also get the: Intel Wireless 7260 WLAN
WiFi 802.11 ac/a/b/g/n + Bluetooth 4.0 Dual Band Card
or the:
Killer Wireless N1535 Dual Band WLAN WiFi 802.11 ac/a/b/g/n + Bluetooth 4.0 M.2 Card -
VM1D6
working on this laptop. Can anyone suggest which one might work better on Fedora?
thanks very much for your help.
