That's correct, read the handbook. I've been using 2 different BT dongles (none of them from Asus) and after following the BT chapter in the handbook both dongles worked without a hitch. FYI, I've been using them to share my internet connection and to connect my BT mouse.

I wrote a quick script for my personal use, perhaps others may find it useful as well:
