Hello Everyone,

I am in a confusion with the Usb Bluetooth Dongle. I have one from ICIDU V4.0 . I wrote a program in C# using 32feet library to detect the Bluetooth devices in the surrounding as a result i can get all the devices listed (like Smart phones) except one which is BLE (Bluetooth Low Energy). I also tried changing the Usb Bluetooth Dongle and then used the one from the TRUST but couldn't succeed :(

Do i need to have a especial type of a Usb Bluetooth Dongle to connect with BLE or is it simply that 32feet.net library doesn't support BLE?

If it's the problem with the Usb Dongle then can anyone suggest me a Dongle which is easily available in the market :) and if its the problem with the 32feet.net library then which one am i suppose to use ??

Any help and suggestion is highly appreciated.

Thanks :)

Have you tried contacting the authors of the library?? https://32feet.codeplex.com/discussions[^]

I think it's because 32feet doesn't support BLE:
