| Is it possible to get a bluetooth adapter (Blue Bee brand)
to work on a Wireless B network?
I have a Linksys BEFW11S4 which runs 802.11b on
2.4 -2.5 ghz . The Bluetooth also runs on this frequency.
Can the linksys detect it?

No. I have a microwave oven that also runs this frequency, it can't detect
that either.

Can't say for that combo, but I have an anycom ap-2002 LAP/PAN Accees Point

Plugged into my linksys WRT54G wap/router so I have a combo of a wifi and
Bluetooth network.. Works really great when people with PDA/BT only come to
visit.....
I seem to remember that the older version of Bluetooth interfered, but the
newer ones don't (something about spread spectrum, I forgot the details once
I figgered out what worked together).. For what it's worth, check out the
thread where I asked about BT and Wireless combos/interference on a thread
"Bluetooth Ethernet Adapter" on alt.internet.wireless.. There was info by
Jeff Lieberman on exactly that (interference between BT and WiFi)
