AC7260 wireless & Bluetooth not working together

I have Lenovo x240 using AC 7260 card. I have a issue when I tried to use the wireless and Bluetooth together.I can connect my x240 to wireless without issue but once I connect my bluetooth mouse or headset, the wireless connection drops. So it seems I can either use wireless or Bluetooth. But I beleive i should be able to use both at the same time. currently I am using 17.13.12.1 for wireless driver and ver 18.2.10 for bluetooth. I have tried update wireless to 18.2.1.10 and it is the same. I never seems to be able to get both working at the same time.

Is there a fix for this?

martaz,

Bluetooth* and Wi-Fi share the same antennas and consequently. this will impact on your Wi-Fi connection. Please check this link for further information on this matter: http://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/support/network-and-i-o/wireless-networking/000005821.html?wapkw=linux+drivers+support+for+wireless Bluetooth® FAQ for Network and I O We recommend that you always your the latest drivers provided by your computer OEM. However, as a second option, you are welcome to try our generic latest version: 18.32.0 found here: https://downloadcenter.intel.com/product/75439/Intel-Dual-Band-Wireless-AC-7260 Drivers & Software - *Please, only use this version if you are experiencing any issues with your wireless connection if by any chance, the latest version provide by your OEM did not resolve your issue.
