  3. WiFi - Bluetooth interference

    I have had the same problem with a newly bought Bluetooth headphones and it was driving me crazy. My machine is a Dell XPS 9550, on Windows 10. I know it's different from yours, but since I couldn't find any good links online to solve my problem, I thought it's worth sharing it here for others to try it out.

    As others have mentioned Bluetooth uses 2.4Ghz channels while WiFi can use both 2.4 and 5.0 Ghz channels. So, if they are both using the same frequency, they are bound to interfere. The solution is usually to connect to put WiFi on a 5 Ghz channel with your router, which I did, but it didn't solve the problem completely. I updated/rolled-back drivers for both Wireless and Bluetooth cards on my PC multiple times to no avail. This is till I found CF5's answer to this question. His suggestion didn't work for me, but I looked at other options and I found that there is one under the name Bluetooth Collaboration. As it turns out, with this option ON, the Wireless card uses Bluetooth capacities to make WiFi connection smoother. Disabling this option was what worked for me in the end, after a week full of frustration.

    Note that I was already connected to a 5 Ghz connection and it was enough on it own. I would still get disconnected from the Internet every minute or so. Now, it's been over a day and I haven't had any WiFi connection issues anymore and my headphone is also working perfectly ever since.

    Hope this will come handy for you and others.

    Bluetooth interference with Wifi

    WiFi - Bluetooth interference

    I came across this days upon a frustrating problem. Whenever I turn on the WiFi, my Bluetooth stops working properly. For example, I have a Bluetooth mouse, if I turn on the WiFi (not connecting to any wireless access points, even when I turned off every single WiFi capable device with which might interfere) my cursor just freezes and becomes unresponsive. After I turn off the WiFi, my mouse starts working straight away. It applies to all kinds of Bluetooth connections, like different smartphones. Can't establish a connection with any Bluetooth capable device. It's weird, because I didn't have such problems before. Hope you can help me, I really don't know what to do. I tried updating drivers, install the drivers from my manufacturer's site, rebooting laptop, turning off and on the Bluetooth / WiFi.
    I have a Lenovo IdeaPad 100-15iBD, Windows 10 up-to-date
