Bluetooth Extender

[Happytraveler]

What is a good Bluetooth Extender that will work with an AT&T Connect to Cell phone and a LG dumb phone? I need to extend the bluetooth range to another room in my parents home.

Did a google search for "bluetooth extender" and it came up with several hits. Checked one link to make sure we were talking about the same thing and it said it was a bluetooth 2.0 extender.

I work in the industry and had never heard of it either. Learned something new today.

Is it Blue Tooth or Wi-Fi you need to extend.. normally BT is used for close stuff like shipping audio to speakers or video to a TV or a printer in the room.

And on printers my phone prints via the LAN (or rather the W-LAN) not BT (Wi-Fi is caLled W-lan on my router).

LAN=Local area net wired
W-LAN Local Wireless network
WAN = Wide Area Net (internet)

At least in my wireless router's lexicon Yes, similar wording is confusing.

They do make long range Bluetooth devices for specialized applications, but not repeaters per se which is what you would need. At least, I've never heard of one?

I know of wifi extenders. They work well and I use one in my house as well as at the Campsite.

Perhaps they don't make them.
