iPhone/iPad Wi-Fi becomes very slow when bluetooth is on I'm experiencing a very slow Wi-Fi connection on all my devices whenever bluetooth is on. All my devices run on the latest software (iPhone Xs Max, iPhone 12, and iPad Pro 11" 2018 - iOS/iPadOS 14.7.1). I've tested this numerous times by trying to compare the internet speed by turning the bluetooth on and off, and the results are always the same: When the bluetooth is off, I get approx. 70 Mbps, this is very close to my subscribed internet speed which is up to 75Mbps. But every time I turn the bluetooth on, the speed drastically drops to around 5-10 Mbps only. I've also tested the speed on my Mac and iPad Pro using ethernet cable, and the speed was normal, 75Mbps. Somehow the bluetooth is interfering with the Wi-Fi. This never happened before. I did try and test it with another iPhone Xs Max running on iOS 14.3 and the results were the same. The router I'm using is Cisco DPC-3828s. Does anyone has a fix on this? I hope this problem will be fixed in the next iOS update.

WiFi 2,4GHZ speed slow Turn off Bluetooth! Unacceptable for 1000€ phone! Apple seems to be amateur to this part! It happens just in one normal day of use after 1 month!

wifi signal slows if bluetooth enabled on iPad Pro 11 Hello I hava a Wi-Fi problem with my iPad Pro 11 2020 version. While Bluetooth is turned on and Apple Pencil 2 connected, Wi-Fi signals slows down. I tested iPad Pro’s WiFi and an android device’s WiFi from same spot. iPad’ pro’s download speed is as half as the android device’s download speed When I disconnect pencil and turned off Bluetooth. iPad’s download speed boosts and outperform android device. How can I solve this WiFi issue? I am sure there are people who experience the problem.

nobody having same issue? when on 2.4GHz network the speed is very slow because of interference with switched on bluetooth.

after switching off bluetooth speed is fine.

the described "help" from apple is not much of a help. yes, I can buy a new router and switch to 5GHz but it is will not remove the problem unless all routers of the world have 5GHz.
