i`ve been on version 6 for a few weeks now, I`m on the Beta update so receive most updates in advance of general release.
To date I haven`t had any problems and ALL my add-ons have & still function.
O/S Win7 64bit.

PCWorld apparently sell this model, so I guess you could go and measure it.

Technical Help / Re: Printers connected by Bluetooth
« on: Friday 05 August 11 18:11 BST (UK) »I think you would be lucky to get 20 feet out of a Bluetooth connection. Bluetooth is really designed for short distances, like phone earpieces, hands-free kits, etc.
Some bluetooth gadgets can work over more than 20 feet, I have a Bluetooth handsfree in my car (not a custom fitted job) and that works easily up to 80 feet, thats the gadget in the car and me indoors.
Allegedly, a class 1 device can communicate up to 100 metres. Which I take with a pinch of salt.

As you are now using Bluetooth have you paired the devices?
Can you see the Bluetooth gadget/printer?
It could be that it is too far away from where you are and cannot get a signal?
As you use a laptop try setting it up nearer the printer gadget and this should eliminate any signal problem.
I`ve only used bluetooth with a phone so not to sure if there is more involved with your issues.

Can you not place the Slingbox & Skybox so they are facing each other and shield the signals with card & tape.
I`m thinking of as an example two cars parked front on to each other with a shroud over their bonnets so when their light are on, they can only shine on each other and nowhere else, a bit like a tunnel effect. It`ll be a trial and error thing.

If it is IR, then there should not be any interference.
Doors/walls should easily block the signals.
IR signals are pretty much "Line of sight".
Strange?
I`m minded to block the IR receiving eye of the HD box and slingbox, shouldn`t need much more that a piece of tape/card.
