if you did not report the problem i can not look into it and help you to 
fix it :) care to tell us what sort of bluetooth failures you are having?

also, earlier revisions of d-link dbt-120 adapter were using broadcom 
bluetooth chip. basically you have to obtain firmware elsewhere (either 
windows cd that came with adapter or linux bluez) and use bcmfw(8) tool 
(included with freebsd) to download firmware into the adapter. then it 
works. i have belkin bluetooth adapter that is broadcom bluetooth chip 
based and it works just fine.

thanks,
max
