Re: Multiple Bluetooth Adapters per host -- will they work



There is nothing in the Bluetooth spec for multiplexing one data stream over
two Bluetooth radios, and the API follow the spec pretty closely.  You
didn't say what you need the extra bandwidth for, and I assume it is not
networking.

If it is a custom designed device, you can do this, but synchronizing the
data between two separate stacks would be up to your software and the
device.
