Whenever I use my Bluetooth on my laptop, which is almost always since I use a bluetooth mouse, my internet speed falls to 1MB/s in the internet panel and almost nothing loads.

I'm using the iwlwifi drivers.

If I try to reconnect, it doesn't work - only disabling my laptop mouse works. If I keep Bluetooth on and not use any Bluetooth devices it does work.

How can I fix this? These problems only occur on my laptop when running Ubuntu.

Note that both Bluetooth and wifi work fine, only that once I try to use both, I lose my wifi connection.

  • I'm having the same issue on a Dell 15z, using Bluetooth nukes the wifi connection. I'm thinking this might be a bug, because I also noticed that turning off bluetooth also disables wifi on this cmop. Jul 22, 2012 at 5:23

  • OP hasn't signed on in 5+ years and never responded to any comments. Question is also about EOL Ubuntu version. VTC as not reproducible. Jul 22, 2017 at 22:40
