Is the Killer Wireless-N 1103 supposed to have Bluetooth?

Just did a fresh Windows install after putting in an SSD and more RAM, all drivers installed, buttons working, except I don't see my Bluetooth (if I even have one).

Is it supposed to have Bluetooth?

 

Yes. Bluetooth 4.0.

 

It should, but the Killer N-1103 itself will not be what allows for the Bluetooth option.
Alienware has some other device on the laptop that handles the Bluetooth.

 

Hmm, guess I gotta try again.

Ah, gotcha.

EDIT:
I'm having problems getting my Bluetooth installed, when I run the install program it tells me to use my wireless switch to turn it on, but since my wireless switch controls my Killer-N card, turning it on and off doesn't do anything for the installation.

Any advice?

 

Same problem here, lol

 

I called up HIDevolution (the place I ordered my laptop from) and they said that my build didn't have Bluetooth included w/it.

Not sure what to make of that, I mean, there's no yellow missing hardware icon in the Device Manager and I don't really use Bluetooth devices at all.

 

When have you called them? You have ordered m18x R2 from them? it kinda says bluetooth 4.0 included

 

I called them up last week, I pointed that out to them too, that it says "Bluetooth 4.0 Included" in the order/list/details invoice, but I've tried various ways, workarounds and methods to no avail.

I also can't see any indication that any Bluetooth hardware is present anywhere in my device listings/manager.

The lady I spoke to said that the module is supposed to be under the touchpad and that I would have to dis-assemble pretty much the entire laptop including the display to get at it just to find out.

She was also willing to send out the module if I wanted.

I have an M17x R4 with the 7970M.

 

Seems like mine came without bluetooth either lol. Why they act like this....

 

The new killer cards are coming out, I know the 1202 is out now, the 1203 im sure will be out soon.... but they have built in bluetooth.

 

Another 80 bucks why they did that....

 

No having Bluetooth doesn't really bother me, would've just liked to have known sooner that I didn't have it instead of pulling my hair out trying to install drivers for something I didn't have lol

 

no the killer 1103 has no bluetooth on the chip, in the m17xR4 you will have a separate module which is located under the palmrest next to the msata port.



if you order a R4 with the 2230 intel card you will get a wifi+bluetooth in one card.
so when you add a 1103 later (like me) you will either loose bluetooth or need to add one like a dell 375 module.

when you buy it from dell straigt away you will have a separate BT module extra next to the killer 1103.
