Which Bluetooth devices have you tried to pair / connect with your N2?

Just in the case this is a misunderstanding about how the Bluetooth Settings work in CoreELEC. The Bluetooth section of the CoreELEC settings won’t show the USB Bluetooth adapter itself, but should show any Bluetooth devices that are currently discoverable or have been paired / trusted in the past.

I am trying to pair the N2 with a Harmony Hub. The Bluetooth section just says no bluetooth adapter found. Is there a pairing step that I need to do?

I’m having trouble with a BT USB dongle as well using a Cambridge Silicon chip.

Perhaps one of us will get an answer.

After going through 3 different adapters from Amazon, the Asus BT400 worked perfectly out of the box.
The BT400 uses a Broadcom chip.
