- Add the speaker. Click Add Bluetooth or other device (Windows 10) or Add device (Windows 11). Choose Bluetooth, and let the PC search for devices.
- Select your speaker. When you see “Guggu Pushpa” (or your speaker’s name) in the list, click it to pair. Follow any prompts. Windows will report when the connection is made.
- Test it out. Play audio; the sound should come from the Bluetooth speaker. Adjust the volume on both your computer and the speaker as needed.
Tip: If your PC or laptop lacks Bluetooth, plug in a USB Bluetooth dongle and install its drivers.
