Bluetooth annoyance

Archived from groups: comp.sys.palmtops.pilot (More info?)

Hi all,

I have a Treo 650 which I sync to a Dell Latitude notebook vua bluetooth.
Everything works perfectly apart from the fact that every so often I have to
pair the device again by entering the pin code. I havent been able to id
exactly when this happens. Any advice?

Thanks FD

I've occasionally a similar problem with my Tungsten T. One thing I noticed
is that
the pairing is not really gone: if I get a request for a pin code, but
instead of entering
the pin code I reboot both the PC & the palm, they are back to being paired
again.
Usually, only rebooting one of them is sufficient. I know this is not
solving your problem,
but if your problem is similar, it might help in understandig the problem, I
hope.
