I saw this function somewhere with old drivers. Can't seem to find it with
the latest drivers. Any pointers?
TIA

I noticed the same thing a while back. I use the hacked Anycom 1.3.2.7
drivers instead (haven't updated for a while), and they haven't got it
either. I think you can safely assume it's on Class 1.

I suppose it doesn't matter but I was hoping to adjust the range so I can
use the prximity feature in FMA and get it to register me as out of range
when I go a shorter distance.

I've had no luck in getting that feature to work (latest fma version). Any
tips, or is that like saying "How long is a piece of string" ?

In the absolute latest version it seems only turn off audio and lock the
workstation is implemented. Will probably have to wait for the log back on
feature....
They are getting quite active recently with FMA updates though!

Thing is, the options for that are greyed out for me completely - as in, it
doesn't work at all. Is this, I wonder, because I am using the virtual
serial port method rather than the true bluetooth method ? (Despite having
XP and SP1 it still doesn't work for me - msi pc2pc dongle, if that helps).
How about you ?

www.sourceforge.net/projects/fma get the latest installer and apply the
patches by dragging the .dif files onto the dospatch.exe program...
I am using serial port connection too, the other bluetooth connection thing
doesn't work for me...

Ah-ha, it works now, ta. You weren't kidding when you said they were on the
ball with updates - the latest one was 13th Nov, I didn't know that.
Now if only I could sort out of the script errors in carpedi3m ......
