Digital Cameras Photo Reviews of D-Link DBT-120 Wireless Bluetooth USB Adapter
Customer Review: EASY to install
Summary: 5 Stars
I own a Nokia 3650, so decided to look for a bluetooth adapter for my pc, well I had 3 choices, and I chose D-Link. Then read bunch of stuff saying that it doesnt work! well-- let me tell you something-- I bought it, it took me 10-15 mins to install & reboot my pc... and then voila! it was working.Then, the final step once you finished all the steps in the booklet is: pair your phone! In your phone go to Connectivity, click on Bluetooth, then turn it on, then pair it. it will look for devices, and it will find ur pc. and then u set it as authorized so u have easy access. now, picture times.. go to images, select ur pic then click on send and select bluetooth.. On the D-link software for bluetooth (double click on icon) there is a saving folder : select, ur pics are there!
Customer Review: Small device, big headache.

I'm always up for a challenge to get things working, however, for the life of me, I could not get this little sucker up and running right w/ Win2k. It appeared that the CD software version was incorrect w/ the device version (version B4, BTW). I just kept getting "Security code invalid" errors. I checked D-Link's support website; the FAQ was horribly bland and the "updated" driver did not work as well (it seemed my CD software version was the same as the downloadable updated version). I searched Google w/ no help.
Horrible, horrible, horrible. Fire the QA dept!
I returned it today and bought the Belkin F8T001 and things couldn't be any simpler. I was up and running in under 5 minutes (the software installation and reboot took the most time).
Customer Review: Does not work with Windows XP SP2
Summary: 1 Stars
Spent over 4 hours attempting to get this thing to work, Downloaded the latest drivers, installed them according to directions, it didn't work. Found a not in their support saying that if SP1 is installed you must do something different, did it, then got a "invalid registration key" message, but had never been prompted for a registration key. found a message online support for this problem spent over 1 hour completely eradicating the drivers from my machine (per d-links' instructions) including several things from the command line, and setting new environment variables, and using a Windows tool that I'd never seen before. and installed the "latest" drivers per instructions, but the same thing happened. Took it back and got the Linksys USBBT adapter (it actually works).Customer Review: Not working properly with Apple wireless mouse and keyboard
Summary: 1 Stars
I am using the DBT-120 ver B3 to operate the wireless Apple keyboard and mouse. If my computer goes into the sleep mode, I cannot wake it up by typing on the keyboard and I have to use the power key on the Apple monitor. When the computer does eventually wake up, it takes a good 2-3 min before the mouse would work. Apple tech support says that they have seen this problem and went through a few solutions but none worked and I was asked to talk to D-link. The D-link tech supports told me that their software stops running when the computer goes to sleep and that is why my keyboard and mouse do not work, and there is no solution to that. Thus, if you plan to use D-link when the computer goes to sleep, it won't work. I am sticking with my wired keyboard and mouse now.Customer Review: Camera phone pictures into my Mac
Summary: 5 Stars
I had a new Sony Ericson cell phone with a camera capability, but how to get the pictures into iPhoto. The D-Link DBT-120 plugs right into a spare USB port, flashes a few times...and my cell phone was immediately recognized with the pictures downloaded quite quickly.
I didn't try and experiments as to distance or going through walls, etc. It worked perfectly at the desk where my G5 Mac sits and that was all I needed. Price seemed right, too.
It just sits there do whatever it does. Basicly, out of sight, out of mind. I'm anxious to see what else it can do as Bluetooth technology comes into wider use. I'd like to have my iPod transmit into my motorcycle helmet speakers without any wires. Nolan helmets has it and J & M will have such a unit in the spring
