This is so interesting, and such an old thread that keeps on going. I have the exact *opposite* of this problem. On Windows 10, this:
>>"For example, if I play a music file from another machine through the network using a BT headset, only the first few seconds of the file will play until the player runs out of buffered data. No further data is downloaded. Web pages also do not download, and I even lose connection to AP from time to time."<< is *exactly* what happens. The file buffers/downloads, the sound begins playback, and the Bluetooth signal interferes with its own download. Turning off the Bluetooth speakers instantly returns Wlan activity. And more, amazingly, it works perfectly fine on Linux (Mint, Kali tested so far). I have to conclude at this point that this is a software problem. Obviously I'm not looking for Win10 assistance here, but I thought it was too interesting a thread not to post in. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to bluez in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/219057 Title: Bluetooth does not coexist with WiFi Status in bluez package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: On my system bluetooth and wifi are unusable together. I have a built- in CSR-based bluetooth module in my laptop, and an Atheros wifi. Wifi transfers slow to a halt whenever there is BT traffic. For example, if I play a music file from another machine through the network using a BT headset, only the first few seconds of the file will play until the player runs out of buffered data. No further data is downloaded. Web pages also do not download, and I even lose connection to AP from time to time. At the same time, it looks like AFH is trying to work. If I monitor the value returned by 'hcitool afh', it changes. But this seems to have little effect on connection quality. Is this a problem with my hardware, or the AFH implementation? Is there a way to force bluetooth to not use the channels in use by WiFi?
