Buying a Bluetooth Headset

Bluetooth headsets for cellular phones are generally very expensive when compared with conventional ‘corded’ PC headsets. Depending on where you buy your headset, you could spend anywhere from $20 to $200+ USD. If you’re looking for a relatively inexpensive headset that’ll simply enable you to make wireless VoIP calls using your PC, I recommend looking on Ebay. Although prices vary considerably on Ebay between merchants for similar products, overall they are considerably less expensive than purchasingrepparttar same headset from a telephone store. A word of caution about Ebay though; ensure that you readrepparttar 118332 fine print associated with shipping costs. Some Ebay merchants advertise Bluetooth Headsets for $5 USD howeverrepparttar 118333 real cost quickly rises to $35+ when you account for their often exorbitant shipping charges.

‘Pairing’repparttar 118334 Headset with your PC

Once your computer is ‘Bluetooth enabled’ and you’ve obtained a Bluetooth headset, you’ll need to ‘pair’repparttar 118335 headset with your computer in order to use it for VoIP applications. This is usually just a matter of setting your headset in ‘discovery mode’ and allowing your PC to ‘search’ or ‘discover’ Bluetooth devices. The steps needed to enable discovery mode on your headset and adapter will vary between devices and should be clearly explained inrepparttar 118336 documentation accompanying your devices.

Adjusting your Audio Settings

Depending on your hardware and operating system, you may need to make adjustments to your audio settings afterrepparttar 118337 headset is ‘paired’ with your PC. Inrepparttar 118338 Windows operating system, this will involve accessing ‘Audio Properties’ throughrepparttar 118339 ‘Control Panel’ and settingrepparttar 118340 audio and voice devices to your newly paired Bluetooth headset. Again, adjusting these settings should be covered inrepparttar 118341 documentation accompanying both your headset and Bluetooth adapter.

Once you’re up and running, you’ll wonder why you didn’t adopt this wireless headset solution sooner. The freedom to wander away from your computer whilst maintaining voice over Internet conversations is something you’ll come to appreciate and love.
