Bluetooth module for Acer Aspire 8930-6442

Yelsikneb · 09-29-2009, 08:12 PM

I would like to have Bluetooth in my Acer Aspire 8930-6442, which has an external button for activating Bluetooth but does not have the module. I found this on eBay and figure it will work, and the seller said it should as well. I was just wondering, what will I need to do to install it? I have no knowledge of how a laptop is arranged internally, or where this would plug in, so any help would be nice. Thanks.

I wouldn't suggest trying to adding bluetooth to your computer. As the internal components are very delicate.
Might I suggest a mini usb dongle that you can plug in and never take out.
THis link should work:

USB add-ons always seem to bulky and annoying, and I'd rather have the internal bluetooth, seeing as I have a button on my laptop for Bluetooth so I'm sure it's made for Bluetooth.

I'm guessing that it's definitely possible if it's up for auction on eBay. I think I might just go ahead and buy it, but I have no idea how to put it in haha.
