Description

I can not tell how to connect to one adapter when you have multiple and list the devices that the adapter sees.

What I Did

Read the docs but I don't see how you can set the deviceID to use. And even how to get that devicesID.

There currently isn't a way to list adapters.

On Linux, you can add an adapter="hci1" keyword argument to BleakScanner and BleakClient.

To list the available Bluetooth adapters on your system, you can use the bluetooth-adapters package.

How does bleak handle the adapter=hci1 argument in different OS's? Is it just ignored, or will it cause trouble?

[dlech]

I'm pretty sure it is just ignored.
