Bluetooth adapter: DBT-120

My Magic Trackpad loves to disconnect and then seconds later reconnect over and over again. This only happens while I'm not using the trackpad.

For example while typing the above text on my Apple bluetooth keyboard the trackpad disconnected / reconnected about 12 times.
The keyboard works perfectly but the trackpad is my problem.
I did a fresh install of Lion a couple of weeks ago and it worked fine till a couple of days ago. It happened on the last install of Lion as well
The trackpad works perfectly on my 2011 MacBook Pro.

Oh and it only happens while I'm not using the trackpad

Any ideas?

Thanks!

Hm I expected it to be closer to round the -50 dBm, what you see if you type blued in Terminal and use the trackpad. Anything out of the ordinary?

The trackpad is working again. I didn't do anything :\
I ordered a Apple bluetooth adapter for the MacBook Pro, I'll be adapting it for my hackintosh soon

Thanks for the help!
