The presence of these types of devices can degrade the performance of an 802.11 wireless LAN.īluetooth provides relatively low data rates for supporting short-range, wireless personal area network (PAN) applications. Potential sources of interference include cordless phones, microwave ovens, and Bluetooth-enabled devices. Previously, we’ve defined RF interference and discussed general methods to minimize the problem. Here’s an assessment of the potential for hindrance from Bluetooth devices and some important tips on how to avoid it. In order for an 802.11 network to operate efficiently, you must minimize RF interference.
