Hardware • [Solved] Cant Enable Bluetooth / Missing Firmware

$

0
Hi, been trying quite a while now to get a TP-Link UB500 bluetooth adopter working on my new install. I can only see old threads here related to my problem.
Running Debian 5.27.5 KDE
Plasma 5.103.0
Kernel version 6.1.0-18-amd64 (64-bit)
PC HP Elite Desk 800 mini with 8 × Intel® Core™ i7-6700T CPU @ 2.80GHz
Ram 16 gig

I cant enable via the GUI
hcitool dev shows no devices.

Code:

hciconfig -ahci0:   Type: Primary  Bus: USB        BD Address: 00:00:00:00:00:00  ACL MTU: 0:0  SCO MTU: 0:0        DOWN         RX bytes:21 acl:0 sco:0 events:2 errors:0        TX bytes:6 acl:0 sco:0 commands:2 errors:0        Features: 0x00 0x00 0x00 0x00 0x00 0x00 0x00 0x00        Packet type: DM1 DH1 HV1         Link policy:         Link mode: PERIPHERAL ACCEPT 
This appears to show the firmware / driver for my adopter is not installed.

Code:

Here are the entries in my sources file

The system is up to date.

Any help or something I missed would be great.
