Context:
I have a Raspberry Pi 4 sitting directly next to my iPhone. I have a bluetooth multisensor ~3 rooms away that I am able to connect to from my phone but I cannot reach it from my Raspberry Pi (verified via bluetoothctl) for home automation purposes with Home Assistant. When I bring the sensor in the same room as the iPhone and Raspberry Pi 4 I am able to receive data on both devices, but when I place it in its ideal location for my purposes, I am only able to reach it via iPhone.
Questions:
- Is there a way that I am able to extend the Raspberry Pi Bluetooth range via terminal in anyway? I've already disabled WiFi in case that was causing any issues.
- If not, is there a dongle I can add to the RP4 where I would be able to get an extended range?
