Good Product
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This was well worth the buy, I can now use bluetooth on my desktop PC.
I would recommend this to a friend I use this at work
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I stream music on my work computer but using headphones limited my movements. This adapter works great and it has a pretty far range too. I leave my desk and go about 4 cubicles away and it still holds the signal.
I would recommend this to a friend- Cons mentioned:Driver installation
Doesn't work properly
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Plugged it in and it would not automatically install a driver. I searched online for the driver. The manufacturer does not distribute the driver, but claims it's contained in a Windows update. I have to check on forums for the name of the driver to select. The driver seems to work, I can connect a headpiece and the headphones work... but not the microphone. I check online some more and find the actual correct driver. Get that installed and now the microphone works, except now the audio cuts out from the headphones constantly and turning off my bluetooth device makes it unable to connect to my computer without going through the pairing process again... I bought the ASUS BT-500 to see if the problem was my computer or the Insignia dongle. After finding the appropriate driver on ASUS's site and uninstalling the Insignia dongle drivers, I can confirm the problem is the Insignia dongle. Don't buy this adapter, go buy the ASUS instead.
