Just noticed something interesting about my laptop....
Something that has just started. When I have Bluetooth on and any bluetooth device connected to my laptop, my wireless speeds drop drastically. Speedtest.net shows 85 mbit download the first time, and less than 1mbit download after connecting my controller.
Anybody else experiencing this?
Edit: OS is WIndows 10.
Have never noticed this, but BT is part of the wireless chip typically, in laptops.

Yeah. And I'd even expect a performance hit knowing that but to take that big of a hit is shocking.

Bluetooth and 2.4 GHz WiFi use the same frequency. If you want to maintain full WiFi speed while using Bluetooth, be sure the WiFi is using 5GHz frequencies

sounds like my wife. she likes to cook those things for like 3 minutes. I always make fun of her calling them shriveled hot dogs.
-
@donahue is that supposed to be a dirty joke?
-
@dustinb3403 not really. She really likes really over cooked hot dogs.
