Wi-Fi and Bluetooth interference

Hi,

I own a MacBook Pro(Retina, 13-inch, Mid 2014, MacBookPro11.1) with OS X Yosemite v10.10.2 (14C1510). The notebook / OS suffers from a terrible bug that is very annoying.

Multiple times a day the WiFi connection to the Internet drops and is unable to reconnect.

This is until I turn the Bluetooth off! Then, the WiFi connection to the Internet is restored instantly. But, I have to leave the Bluetooth disabled for a couple of minutes in order to persist the Internet connection.

This is rather frustrating, inconvenient and of course unacceptable.

I have connected two Apple Bluetooth peripheral devices:

Apple Wireless Keyboard
Apple Wireless Mouse

I found this but I don't think the sources interference is really the problem here.

Any thoughts or suggestions, other than the well known hacks for the WiFi issue?

Thank you,

Valantis

I am also having this problem. I have had MacBook for two years, but it seems all of a sudden, my wireless was slowed to a crawl, or would drop out completely. I accidentally shut off bluetooth while troubleshooting and, boom - wireless comes back without a problem. As the writer above says, I can then turn on bluetooth again, and it will work for a while, but then lock up again.
