why not try measure rssi strength of these bd addresses via hcitool? That way you would be able to define your threshold rssi for what you feel is "in range" condition ...l2ping would never let you have such control.... > > Under system/bin I cannot find any l2ping executable.

I think l2ping should be under usr/sbin/ but you should rely on a grep in your root fs on phone. You don't need to be root to run l2ping or similar bluez tools ...HTH ...
