Aximsitebluetoothicon Broadcom Bluetooth Stack & BT GPS receiver Trouble

I just installed the Widcom Bluetooth Stack from Axim, it looks much more sophisticated than the build-in MS Bluetooh Stack and I got my BT headset working.

However, none of my navigation software can find GPS signal!

In the Widcom Bluetooth manager, my Globlsat 359w can be found, paired and connected.

However it dosen't say which COM and speed.

I can get GPSinfo to pickup signals after mannually select BT - GPS - xxxx in the manager.

No matter how hard I try, IGuidance / Microsoft Pocket Street failed to find any GPS signal at any COM, including COM7 OR COM8.

What do I do?

By the way, Is "GPS" in WM5 "settings" useless now after I installed the Widcomm BT Stack?

Have you tried using the GPSInfo program that came with the BT-359 and having it scan for the port?

Under Bluetooth Manager, click and hold on the BT-359 icon, and have it connect. Then, go into GPSInfo and press the "scan" button. It will look at all the ports to see if it can find anything sending out GPS type data.
