asterisk users - Jan 2013 - OT - Chan-mobile -Bluetooth dongle on remote LAN workstation

Hello,

On a LAN, is it possible to install a bluetooth dongle on one workstation
(at this time, this workstation OS is not specified) and use it with
chan_mobile ?
I've read some USB over IP (or Ethernet) middleware exist but I'm not
certain I'm looking at the right direction.

Regards

Hi Olivier!

Chan_mobile is a old project and work very poor.

Search about chan_dongle and get a usb modem it really works.

You can't use another machine to connect your hardware.

Best regards and sorry for top-posting i'm at blackberry phone.

Emiliano.

Hi Oliver,

I have used chan_mobile over the years on a number of occasions with 
several different Nokia phones. I would say that even if in theory it 
might be able to work with some USB over IP software for the bluetooth 
dongle, it's probably not worth the hassle in practice. It's quite 
likely that it will create too many problems, which will probably 
outweigh the benefits of what you are trying to do. Bluetooth already 
introduces a certain delay/latency in the communication path - by adding 
and IP link in between, that will only get worse.

Sebastian

Hi Oliver,

I've been trying to do this for a while.
Been using latest blackberries and oldest nokia, and a laptop with
build-in and also an external BT-dongle.

What i noticed, is that the presence is highly unstable.
Even without walking along (kept the phone 10 cm from the BT-dongle) it
kept bouncing: found-gone-found-gone.... Unworkable.

I wanted not only presence, but speech-patch also via BT.
Idea was, that if co-workers are located at the other end of the world,
they can still be reached on they handy, even when no GSM-roaming is
acceptable (due to costs).
