Bluetooth For Computers

By Alexandra Brown


Bluetooth is widely used nowadays, it can either be found in mobile phones and computers. Let us get to know what Bluetooth really is for us to be able to understand it better. Bluetooth has the ability to interact with other Bluetooth-enabled systems or devices and it is a wireless system protocol. Simpler said, Bluetooth is just like many other communication protocols like IMAP, SMTP, HTTP and FTP. This kind of technology enables the people to keep up with the fast paced lane to the future where everything is becoming instant and the traditional slow moving world is being left behind. Before, communication is very slow and primitive therefore messages take time before it arrives to the person concern. But with the advent of technology, there is already lots of method now that can be used for faster communication process.

Telecoms vendor ericsson was first to use Bluetooth to solve the problems of synchronizing many devices. Because of the discovery of Bluetooth in 1994, transferring of file has become easier and hassle-free. Bluetooth technology uses only a low 2.45 GHz frequency but has the ability to transfer files from one communication data to another. That is one of the many reasons why it is widely used in mobile phones and other devices like computers.

Another good thing about Bluetooth technology is that it cannot interrupt other electronic device since it is only using weak signals that consume only 1mw. Compared to other devices that has the potential to interrupts and disrupts data communication, use of Bluetooth is deemed harmless.

People may ask how to be able to add Bluetooth enabled devices to their computer, which is why we have provided with answers to that question. Below are two things that are required to be done for you to be able to check if your computer and device are compatible and ready to connect:

1. Checking whether your computer has a built in Bluetooth adapter should be the first thing to do. If your computer does not have a built in Bluetooth adapter, you can add it manually by simply plugging it into a USB port. Most computers nowadays, especially laptops, come with built-in Bluetooth adapter. Turning the Bluetooth switch on your laptop or turning on the adapter will enable you to use the Bluetooth function of your computer. For people who are not quite sure whether their computer comes with a built in Bluetooth adapter, you can heck the computer manual to check that information. Checking the computer manual may also provide you information on how to turn on the Bluetooth adapter.

2. Next thing that you need to do is setting up the Bluetooth-enabled device so that your computer will be able to find it. You can do this by turning the device on and making sure that it is discoverable. Once the device is in discoverable mode, it sends a wireless signal to other Bluetooth-enabled devices that allows it to be detected by other mobile phones, computers and other devices. Thus you will be able to pair your Bluetooth-enabled device to your computer and this is also called the pairing mode.

Bluetooth is not only automatic, it is also wireless and its signal can reach about 32 feet which gives it the advantage over wires and cable connectors. Because people tend to like wireless technology more than struggle with the dilemma of using things that has wires, Bluetooth technology is only becoming more and more popular.
