Mobility Site - View Single Post - Sync w/ Bluetooth....COM Port not available??

12-06-04, 11:04 AM

Ok I picked up a Linksys USB Bluetooth Adapter so I could use it to sync via Bluetooh w/ my laptop. It seems it uses a diffenent COM port each time I use it! It is on COM port 16(and has been on 5,6,8,9,etc) and the only port I can see on Connection Settings in Active Sync is COM 4. Isn't there a way I can free up the COM ports I need so I can use this thing or am I just wasting my time and should be using a regualr sync cable?
