Bluetooth range

I have Airpods which work a treat on my iPhone 7+. I can circumnavigate my 3 bedroom house and not disconnect from the phone whilst it is sitting on the same desk as the Mac Mini which is a different story. Even whilst sitting at the desk with the Mac 1.2 metres away, it will drop out. Same Airpods.

I have noticed, when pluging other devices into USB, the range is effected. Sometimes I have trouble with the BT keyboard as well, when plugging an external drive in. Any solutions?


Mac mini, macOS 10.14

The range should be the same for any device (30 feet, 10 meters).


It would not hurt to reset the SMC and NVRAM.
