is within the effective working range of your phone.

MY COMMUTER DOES NOT PLAY MUSIC OR ANSWER CALLS WHEN IT'S CONNECTED TO A
BLUETOOTH MOBILE PHONE.
Make sure your Bluetooth mobile phone supports A2DPand HSF (hands-free) profile;
and ensure that your Bluetooth cell phone is within its effective working range.
WHEN PAIRED WITH MY COMPUTER, WINDOWS ASK FOR NEW DRIVER. DO YOU PROVIDE THIS?
We do not. The Bluetooth A2DP/HSF drivers may require playing stereo sound via
Bluetooth Connection, but the driver is actually needed for the Bluetooth module on
your PC, instead of the speaker. Different Bluetooth modules may require different
drivers. Please contact your PC or Bluetooth module’s manufacturer for a driver update.
MY CONNECTION IS NOT STABLE, IT CUTS IN AND OUT, OR THERE IS A LOT OF WHITE NOISE.
Check for nearby radio or wifi interference, also check to see that there are no
objects between your Commuter and Bluetooth device that would impede the signal.

FUNCTIONS WITH THE SPEAKER WHEN PLAYING MUSIC?
