Someone suggested
"
Check the LMP Version (Bluetooth Core Spec)
LMP tells you the Bluetooth core version (e.g., 5.0, 5.2, 5.3).
"

And check driver version ans well as adapter properties.

No doubt it is in SIW somewhere, but I gave up.

Thanks advance.]]>

Can you give me some guidance on how to resolve this?

Named like: USB3_1, USB3_2, USB3_3, USB3_4, USB_5, USB_6, USB_11, USB_12, USB_13 ... etc.
They are all 'Enabled'.

Is there a way in SIW that shows me which device is connected to those ports?
I would like to disable a few, as I am facing USB conflicts that can not be solved by software and/or firmware updates.

Also my Epson printer has a separate USB storage port (that I never use) and takes a drive letter.

That said, I am not sure if it will work though. Maybe the Epson storage port just simply uses another USB port then.

I'm trying a proof-of-concept for SIW to create/update and store the data in a SQLite3 database (using ODBC), when a user logs in to the domain.

Am I doing something wrong, is there another way to test this, or will SIW not work in this environment?


I have attach a screen shot of the error message and a  ChatGPT method, to try the POC.
