RPi 3 - Use integrated Bluetooth and WiFi at the same time

[Pierre86]

Hi,

I have a project of a visual voice mail with a Raspberry Pi 3, the official touchscreen and a Bluetooth speaker. I have a problem of audio quality through integrated Bluetooth : the quality is really poor.

The RPi is connected to the Internet via integrated WiFi.

After a few tries, I noticed that the quality of audio is OK when the WiFi is disabled with the command line :

Code: Select all

ifconfig wlan0 down

Does somebody notice the same issue ? Is there a solution to make use of integrated Bluetooth and WiFi at the same time, while keeping a good audio quality through Bluetooth ?

Thanks for your help,

Kind regards,

Pierre86

Hi there

IMHO using the Pi3 onboard BT and WiFi at the same time is not viable, see my thread here.

Thanks for your help.

It's a bit disappointing, but I will manage with it, by adding a wifi or bluetooth dongle.

I have also noticed that when making a Bluetooth audio receiver. When WiFi is on, audio is bad. As soon as I turn off WiFi, the audio is good.
