Yeah, I tried that. Didn’t make a difference, unfortunately.

Yeah, at this rate I’m probably just going to get a USB wireless adapter since it’s not playing nice with my bluetooth

I updated the firmware on Sunday, before even attempting to connect it to bluetooth

It has bluetooth. I’m able to connect it to bluetooth on Windows 10 with the same computer and was able to connect it to a Fedora 39 KDE laptop via bluetooth, as well.

I suspect the issue is the Linux driver for the MediaTek MT7921K or the bluetooth configuration on my arch linux system needs to be adjusted somehow
