Solve : bluetooth adapter can this be used to create a network?

Answer»

i have two pcs none of which have wi fi. i have a broadband connection on one pc and i wish to create a newtork to the other to access the broadband.

i am thinking that maybe i can get two usb bloothtooth adapters and create a wireless network within my house one pc downstairs the other upstairs.

is this feasable or what should i do. WELCOME any suggestions

thanks.
tadhgmorrisSounds possible but i'm no expert.

i have heard that one limitation that may COME into play is the distance between BT devices. With wifi you can measure the distance from one device to another in 100's or even 1000+ feet. But my understanding of BT is that your sub 100 and i think walls and other obstruction can compromise the quality of the connection.

All of that said, if there is such a device made for computers to USE in that way then why would it not work with-in the limitation of the technology itself.

It makes me wonder about the process of inventing things. If PROGRAMS for computers start with an idea i wonder if it's not possible to have a thread here where idea's can be introduced to code writer's and hacks
( they're code writers in a sense aren't they? }
Oh no!!!!! i think i opened up a can of worms...... Blue tooth is 30 ft. You can use USB wifi adapters to accomplish the same thing.This is an exercise in futility...

Although it yes can be done the cost and limitations compared to a wireless setup don't MAKE it worthwhile...
