Bluetooth compatability

[zordon]

Just bought the excellent N2 as well as a WiFi adaptor but now need to get my Bluetooth headphones working so looking to buy a Bluetooth adaptor. I’ve seen a lot on sale but most say compatibility with Windows only, however I imagine I should be looking for something compatible with Linux instead.

From reading through the forums, I’ve seen adaptor Asus BT400 mentioned as well as chipset CSR8510.

Is there a list of known adaptors or specific chipsets that are known to be compatible?

If you are looking for a BT 5 dongle.

USB Bluetooth Adapter(s) that work out of the box

I’ve searched the forums but couldn’t find any specific recommendations. I’m looking for a compatible bluetooth USB adapter that would work with the N2 Plus, mainly to pair some bluetooth controllers, so a good range is what I’m looking for. Anyone have any recommended Amazon links? Edit: Trying to answer my own question. I landed on this one, which is BT5.0 and uses the Realtek 8761B, which recently had drivers added to CE so here’s hoping it works!

I bought the “TP-Link UB400 Bluetooth 4.0 Nano USB Adapter” and can confirm it is working.
