Nathan, I don't know what I'm doing wrong....but, my laptop, running Vista, will find the GPS....It sees it in the Bluetooth manager....but will not assign a port.... I know it's me.... but, I can't manually assign a port for the GPS. Just a Vista dummie!
I'll be vague since I can't see what you see.
Is it possible to "discover services" on the device and find one called "serial port profile"?
Back when my bluetooth gps was paring properly, this worked on XP and detection found it.
