Subject: [Bluez-devel] Bluetooth / WiFi USB concurrency issue

Hello,

I have a bluetooth device on a USB slot and a WiFi device on another USB
slot, and my mini-ATX PC (Ubuntu 7.04 kernel 2.6.30
Bluez 3.9) is connected to the network thanks to the WiFi/DHCP.

I have noticed that when a scan (sdptool) is performed, the network link (if
I perform a simple "wget" for example) is either slowed down or interrupted
(not sure) and carried one / completed once the scan is finished. On a
former kernel / bluez it was simply crashed and I had to up/down the
bluetooth device.

Do you have any idea why this weird thing happens ?

Thanks a lot,
Oli

Hello Olivier,

What you experience is bluetooth/wifi coexistence issues.
Your wifi chip must have bt coexistence support in order to work when
their is some bt activity.

Cheers,

Fabien
