I'm using a V551, and I have a laptop with Bluetooth. I have
connection manager from Cingular, and a data cable.
When I use the USB drivers and the data cable and connection manager,
performance is good.
When I use bluetooth drivers with connection manager, performance is
almost non-existent. The data stops and starts quite frequently. The
phone is right near the laptop.
Anyone else having this problem that might know a solution?

No -- my V551 works fine over Bluetooth, albeit with standard Windows Dial-Up
Networking, not the Cingular Connection Manager.

There could be some interference issues, particularly if there's a lot
of Wifi access points operating in the vicinity. This is true even if
the phone and computer very near each other.
Have you tried using a bluetooth headset with your phone in the same
area? If you have you keep hearin static or "popcorn" type noises while
talking, then it's definitely RF interference.

I don't think its interference, my headset works fine. I think it may
have something to do with the drivers on the computer or something... I
did try to make it work with dial up networking without the cingular
software, but got the same results.

Bluetooth worked out-of-the-box with my iBook's OSX dialup networking
software and old V551.
I had to guess at what kind of modem might be equivalent & am not sure
I made the best choice (I think I'm using a Motorola TimePort azs modem
type.) I'm getting 50kbps throughput but don't know how to tell if I'm
in an EDGE area.
