I can confirm it still exists! Annoying as fuck! And there is almost no information about this anywhere on the internet. I was lucky to google this one up, spent lots of time trying to fix this.
I can not but disagree with you nathan that this is not important, as it is quite commong that people connect bluetooth devices to their laptops. As soon as you do this, then you can basically not use the internet anymore. What is even more strange is that even after disabling the bluetooth, this error continues to exist. The only way to resolve it is to restart the computer. I will try changing the channel on my router, but I doubt that will help. I have an apple trackpad that I would like to use, and I can imagine people also having bluetooth keyboards. -- 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?
