small range of movement on real wiimote?

[mintehh]

bought a wiimote+msp+bluetooth adapter+sensor bar for dolphin, and when i try it in games (tried trauma team so far) the movement is fine but the range is really small.. like if I go past a certain distance it just stops responding unless i move it back.

what would be the source of the problem? bad bluetooth? bad sensor bar? (tried top and bottom.. didn't help) bad wiimote? (it's not fake)

if it matters i tried at different distances away from the sensor and still had the same problem
