Further Update, 5/16/17: Upgrading to FIVE STARS after discovering following. When I lose BT connectivity to my BT 2.0 mouse, I have found the best way to quickly reactivate my mouse is to go to the Settings/Action Center icon in the Win10 SysTray and click on the CONNECT icon(and if necessary, the "Find Other Types of Devices link). I also found that Plugable has an excellent and scarily powerful debugging program for examining your system for leftover BT drivers and software that might be causing your system problems. After you run the program, you will get a number of .CSV files (comma separated values) with info on devices and software on your computer that you can load into a spreadsheet like Excel or Google Sheets to more easily find items that might interfer with your Plugable adapter. Excellent instructions on how to remove problem items. I found left over Lumia phone BT software that I didn't realize I'd installed on my computer in the past. The Plug Debug software helped me reduce but not eliminate the BT connectivity loss. The Action Center CONNECT trick finally makes the device workable. Microsoft and Plugable need to make things work much "more better....." http://plugable.com/products/usb-bt4le/help/using-plugdebug-to-troubleshoot-usb-bt4le-bluetooth-adapter-issues/
Originally gave product 4-Stars, am downgrading to 2-Stars as the Plugable BT 4.0 LE device loses connectivity constantly to my mouse, which worked very reliably with an old IoGear BT 2.0 USB adapter. Plugable really needs to update the driver to work better with classic BT 2.0 devices.
Hard to tell if the problem is the Pluggable USB Bluetooth adapter or Microsoft's Windows 10 Creator Update edition The product out of the box appears to work great with an old Logitech V470 BT 2.0 mouse The problem is that several times a day, BT connectivity just goes away. Turning BT off and on again does not restore it. Only a reboot does. Then again BT works great until the next connectivity loss The instructions that come with the device say it is just Plug N' Play with Windows 10. Only be sure to remove any previous BT software, of which I have none (in Device Manager only the Logitech mouse, the Pluggable device, Device Identification, and Microsoft Services show). The previous BT adapter and the Logitech mouse were both used as Plug N' Play devices with no management software or drivers others than those provided by Windows installed for either. But whatever the actually origin of the problem is, I fault Pluggable for leaving the user holding the bag. I've never had a Logitech BT device that tells me that I as a user must become a "geek" to use their device. The Logitech installations are very user-friendly and pretty much do all the work and thinking for the user. Pluggable should do the same.
Update(4/9/17). Reinstalling the driver in Device Manager on my Win10 computer also fixes lost connectivity, at least temporarily. Find the Broadcomm BCM20702 Bluetooth 4.0 USB Device under Bluetooth. Mouse right click, Pick Update Driver, then Browse My Computer, then Let Me Pick From a List of Available Drivers, then Broadcomm BCM20702 Bluetooth 4.0 USB Device. It may take one or two minutes to reinstall the driver. After that I regained connectivity without having to reboot.
