</div></div>If you read wikipedia, it has 79 channels, so every device will use<br>
it's own. It is very possible that any of the channels gets<br>
interference from other gadgets in the 2.4 GHz band, but knowing Linux<br>
you very probable can move your gadgets to another of the 79 channels.<br>
I know that in the beter wifi routers you can select the channel to<br>
use, based on an interference diagram it gives you.<br>
So if you experience interference, I'm almost certain it wil be<br>
solvable.<br>
Also since audio is one of the early uses of Bleutooth, I assume it's<br>
well developed to prevent and solve interference.<br>
Maybe you can already solve your problem by moving the speaker to<br>
another channel?<br>

I'm running a combined FE/BE and have inserted dongles into the towers usb ports for either radio frequency or bluetooth. If I can get RF and BT to play nice with each other I'm all in. </div></div><br></div></div>
