hi everybody, i have a wifi card with Bluetooth AX210N ...my motherboard has no USB Connector, how can I work around this hardware limitation and enable the Bluetooth?
 
There are several of those. Which model?


Read this. You have no pins on the board for this? You have a prebuilt, probably mini, PC. I'm not shocked if they are missing. But hopefully you have one.

Thank you for sharing the post
 

Page 13 has a layout of your board. Reading online, the G2 doesn't have any USB headers, the G3 doesn't look like it does either. I see some pins above the PCIe slot, but it doesn't look like a USB header, nor is it in the right spot. I did see someone suggest getting a PCIe USB card and using that. Make sure it has an internal header and just plug in there.
