Why I Have A Very Strong Dislike for Dell!
I fucking hate Dell as a company, after the Wireless-N card fiasco I am now finding out about the Dell Wireless Bluetooth Module 375 manufactured by Broadcom. Well recently I got a sweet Bluetooth headset from Skull Candy. The Alienware M17x R3 has been acting like a super piece of shit with my new headset. Here's a list of my grievances since the internet loves lists.
There seems to be a workaround I'm about to test, through this guide here - http://dellwindowsreinstallationguide.com/dell-wireless-cards/ Why Dell couldn't get QA to maybe test this themselves is beyond me. A 4 yr old product is still not End-Of-Life, especially one that cost close to $2500.
That's the problem though, and what people like Linus Torvolds and RMS have sought out to remove in this world. It's a utopian way of thinking, to have true open source software.
**EDIT - Driver was installed, it vastly improved performance, but there is still choppiness and cutting off for prolonged periods of time. It might be some chatter from my location with a mixture of Laptops, Microwave, and Wireless-N/G signals coming from my router.
- It's super choppy and lags
- It randomly stops pairing
- It will not always sync with audio
BTHUSB Error in Windows System Event Log -
The Bluetooth driver expected an HCI event with a certain size but did not receive it.
