On S8 music skips on bluetooth device when wifi is on

[Android Central Question]

Even downloaded music skips when playing on bluetooth speaker when wifi on. If I turn off wifi on phone plays fine. Samsung reset my phone. What a pain. Did not help problem at all. Thinking there is some conflict on phone's chip?

Welcome to Android Central! Bluetooth and wi-fi can sometimes interfere with each other, since Bluetooth is also on the 2.4 GHz frequency. If your router can broadcast 5 GHz, see what happens if you use that wi-fi frequency. Otherwise, try changing the wi-fi channel on your router -- you'll need to read the router's manual to learn how.
