I never realised bluetooth borked WiFi

[northernladuk]

I had a problem with BT hub5 and Wi-Fi dropping and reconnecting constantly. I used some Wi-Fi channel app analyser and just switched the channels on my hub and it stopped the connection issues. Apparently it can be a problem if there are other BT hubs around as they use the same channel by default. Worth a go just to tweak if not help your problem directly.

Edit. This article covers what I've probably badly explained

I use insider - this link should be the Home version (Free):
inSSIDer 3.1.2.1 Download - TechSpot


Four wifi networks at home, set up so they don't overlap and the ones nearest a neighbour's house are at the opposite end of the channel range to theirs.

+1 for inSSIDer works a treat

I think we used this previously. The hub we have has an "auto select" feature that claims to pick the best channel(s) although I don't know how good it is.

It's OK as a start, but does it switch channels if something else appears on the channel it is using? I think the old BT ones would do the check when they were switched on but doesn't check after that, so if another device is switched on (e.g. in another house) that clashes with the same channel - maybe not near your router but in one of the other rooms in your house - then you could have problems.

It lets you go in and refresh but doesn't do it automatically... but then we only had this router about two weeks and we did refresh it to make sure.
