Q: Bluetooth Interfering with Wi-Fi?

Hello,

 

When I installed Yosemite onto my MBP, I was experiencing unbearably slow wi-fi speeds. At a certain point it would drop altogether. Then I noticed that I was attempting to listen to music on my bluetooth speaker the whole time. As soon as disconnected from bluetooth (Turned Off Bluetooth), my Wi-Fi connection would miraculously work again, allowing me to browse the internet and receive messages. When I turned bluetooth back on and paired my wireless speaker, the wi-fi connection would drop again. I did this a couple of times to make sure it wasn't a coincidence.

 

My Bluetooth signal is clearly interfering with my Wi-Fi connection–it was not doing this before the Yosemite update, so it probably isn't a hardware issue? Do I report this to Apple? Call customer support? Or is there some kind of fix I can work on myself? Any insight would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

MacBook Pro (Retina, 13-inch, Late 2013), OS X Yosemite (10.10)
