Hi team,

I have wifi tehetering on and the bluetooth paired (car or handsfree). If I try to call or i receive It, the bluetooth and wifi tether disconnect and after the call, the networks go alive.

I have a Nokia 6 ta-1003. Any help?

Thanks in advance

I guess both radios, Wifi and BT, were operating in the same the 2.4GHz band and were overlapping with some LTE band. Try changing Hotspot band to 5Ghz and see if it helps. You cannot change BT band though.

I guess LTE bands 40,41 can clash with 2.4Ghz Wifi/BT

Thanks, changed wifi tethering to 5ghz works, but my car only support 2,4 ghz :(

My last phone (Samsung A5) works nice with 2,4ghz wifi tethering and BT. IS It only a Nokia 6 issue?

I'm not sure it's Nokia 6 specific issue. Probably your A5 did not support LTE bands which clash with Wifi/BT at 2.4 GHz.
You can also try disabling 4G/LTE and force 3G only on your Nokia and see if Wifi/BT disconnect during calls.

I switch to 3G only and the problem persist :(

thanks a lot for your help

I have the same problem which started after the phone got updated to 8.1

With 8.0 it was working fine. I contacted Nokia support but they were far from technical and offered some trivial changes in the settings which didn't help. They were not even authorized to register it as a bug.

I'm afraid that unless the phone receives another software update, we're stuck with this.
