Regarding the original request, I've been doing some research and came 
across the following:  https://www.lm-technologies.com/

They have combination WIFI/Bluetooth as well as pure Bluetooth, both low 
power and large/long range.  And they claim Linux compatibility.

It looks like the majority of the pure Bluetooth devices are only 4.0. 
There is one combination WIFI/Bluetooth I saw that is 5.0.

Does anyone have any actual experience with dongles from this 
manufacturer to share?

Thanks,

Bob
