Re: Re: Remote Buddy does not cause packet loss

This posting is older than 6 months and can contain outdated information.

Thanks for the input.

According to Wikipedia:

Bluetooth operates in the license-free ISM band at 2.4-2.4835 GHz.

WLAN operates in 2,412 - 2,484 GHz (channel 1 - 14) and 5,170-5,805
GHz (channel 34-161), whereas the use of the latter band, that does
not overlap with Bluetooth. doesn't seem to be allowed worldwide.

You'll see that Bluetooth and WLAN pretty much use the exactly same
bands. You can find a nice table of which channel uses which frequency
at http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/WLAN - the English version sadly lacks
that overview.

That said, the only way to find a remote control at any time is to
continously look for those that are known. It's a limitation of the
technology, not Remote Buddy.

You can turn the "Bluetooth Receiver" on and off in Remote Buddy's
menu and it's preferences' Hardware pane.

The ideas you provide are interesting and I'll definately look into
them. The problem - as always - is that one size never fits all ..

Best regards,
Felix
