Hi guys,
Acidentally I found this forum and I decided to try it, if the people here can help me unsolvable troubles.
I have to know, if my devices are working OK, or if there is some problem among them.
Well, first of all, this problem is happening at my laptop Toshiba Portége R500, which is equipped by Intel 4965 AGN and some Bluetooth device.
The problem is, when I turn on both of the devices and use them in the same time, them problems comes. If I was connected to the AP (via 802.11g, so the same/similar frequence to Bluetooth device) without problems and lost packets before, if I have switched on both devices, then packet lost comes (checked it by command: ping -t
www.google.com), connection speed has rapidaly decrease and so on. I use the Bluetooth laser mouse, so that's the reason, why I have to (and want to
) use both of wireless interfaces.
Somebody told me, that this new Intel card contains both of the wireless devices, it means WiFi as well as Bluetooth at the one card. Is that right or not? I know, that frequence used by WiFi 802.11b/g is same or similar to Bluetooth, just has some another modulation of the waves, but is it normal, how is my card/devices working?
Some of my friends says, that its normal, because the modulation of WiFi and Bluetooth is so similar, that there problems can come and its normal. Me and second group of my friends says, that this is a hardware problem, that already the manufacturer knows, that there devices can interference, so there has to be (hopefully) some shielding which provides to use both of the devices in the same time.
Thank you for your experinces, thought, solutions!
