    Hey there,

    I'm having some odd issues with my Killer 1202's AR3012 bluetooth module. I finally got it to work, I can connect to a phone, mouse, or keyboard, but I cannot seem to connect to any of my controllers, IE: my Ouya controller or PS3 controller.

    Both were properly put into Pairing mode, or manually paired by MAC address (both tried for PS3). I've tried the beta drivers, Sager recommended drivers, and latest stable drivers. No change.

    Any ideas?

    150 views, and not a soul has an idea.

    It's odd, because after I uninstalled and reinstalled the drivers, I watched to make sure every secondary stack gets loaded (Audio, HID-Compliant control, File Transfer, etc. About 7 of them.)

    I'm really at a loss.

    Do the devices appear on your device's list? Do they appear on the game controller's list? If so, no button action is captured? If not, can it be that the bluetooth stack used has no support for them (seriously doubt that though: they should appear as HIDs).

    The devices never even show up. Other bluetooth devices show up and can be connected to, including a mouse (which also shows up as a HID). They do properly pair to other computers, or while using another bluetooth adapter on this computer. (ASUS BT211)

    Am I resigned to simply buying the $20 BT adapter?

    Did you try getting in touch with Qualcomm or Killer support about it? We haven't tried connecting said peripherals before, though it sounds to me like a matter of compatibility/device support.

    I'm in communication with them now. I'm going to try another fix out tonight, and see if it works. Basically, uninstalling everything to do with Bluetooth, even the MS Generic Suite, and installing the latest stable from Killer. That SHOULD refresh all the stacks, and give me 'as stock' performance.

    The PS3 controller is 'supported' (Not directly, but as a 'Bluetooth Gamepad'), and others can connect the Ouya.

    Hi Hybrys, any luck with that reinstall. I have done that already with the latest Qualcomm Aethoros drivers and same result as you described. I reported my issue with the supplier here, and nothing has improved. I checked Qualcomm and couldn't find where to link support. All the hype about this card and BT doesnt install. http://www.avadirect.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=4163
