Re: how many BT devices can be connected at the same time?

oh here i got a little confused,

7 connection for each dongle you mean??.. that means i can connect 15
different BT devices and  each device can simultaneously have 7
connections with the Bluez stack??..  My application works on a
topology with heterogenious BT devices. Mobiles being the lowest
common denominator. So when i talk specifically about mobiles, I can
connect 15 mobiles to Bluez with one connection from each(i think
mobiles cant have more than one connection at any instance of time).


If i can get these informations cleared up first, i can continue with
my interesting venture ;). I am planning to circumvent this
restriction using multiplexing. I will just let the connections wait,
till they get free ;). Let me see how it goes. But someone please
correct if i am still misunderstanding the BT constraints.
