Re: [NTLK] Chicago meeting tomorrow morning

Thanks Martin. My terminology misuse came from a discussion 15 minutes previous where a colleague's BT adaptor had stolen the IP of his internet gateway, causing overnight hairpulling.

Not to be annoying, but the Bluetooth adapter isn't a NIC in the
conventional sense. Bluetooth is a standard for short range wireless
communication between devices(ie not TCP/IP).

It can be used for network connectivity, but it doesn't do that by
default.

FYI,
