Simple Bash script to locate Bluetooth devices
Platforms: Linux · Last verified September 6, 2026
BlueRanger is a simple Bash script which uses Link Quality to locate Bluetooth device radios. It sends l2cap (Bluetooth) pings to create a connection between Bluetooth interfaces, since most devices allow pings without any authentication or authorization. The higher the link quality, the closer the device (in theory).
Only use this tool against systems you own or are explicitly authorized to test — see the disclaimer.
