I'm trying to troubleshoot a weird behaviour with my old Dell XPS. The device is a Dell Wireless 1397 WLAN Mini-Card, which combines wireless and bluetooth. Enabling the mini-card using the touch button on the laptop fires up both devices:
# rfkill list
0: phy0: Wireless LAN
Soft blocked: no
Hard blocked: no
2: hci0: Bluetooth
Soft blocked: no
Hard blocked: no
but the bluetooth is not able to l2ping my mobile phone, until and unless I
have blocked phy0, or have stopped net.wlan0. This means every time I want to
connect to my phone I have to disable the wireless part of the card. I am not
sure if this problem also exists on MSWindows.
Have you come across anything like this and is there a way to have both
devices on the card active without one blocking the other? Additional info on
controller and mini-card devices below.
