Ok so I just got my 6000 today

and I can't figure out how the heck to turn off my bluetooth connection. All my local services are set to manual and i've been searching here and there trying to figure out how to turn it off.

Everywhere I go it says to right click on the wireless assistant, but when I do the only thing that happens is that I get 1 option and it says open hp wireless assistant..

Also does anyone know what pressing fn and f2 does?? when i press them, it shows one laptop then an arrow pointing to another laptop

what if you Open the wireless assistant and then turn off bluetooth from there? Also on this screen you can change the Properties in wireless assistant so the right-click works directly.

I have no idea what fn-f2 does ...

I've been trying to do it that way but when I open wireless assistant it only shows me that both wireless lan and bluetooth are on but there's no direct button or anything to just turn it off..

Never saw that before! Maybe you need to logon with Administrator authority first?

i called up hp today and they told me that if i have my wireless connection then my bluetooth connection also has to be turned on and can not be turned off separately.

does anyone else have any insight on this issue??
