Wireless Headphones Causing Internet Speed Loss

fojacko · January 24, 2017

So I bought myself some Corsair Void headphones and their great, but for some reason, when i use them (in wireless mode) on my upstairs PC the speed drops from 30mbps to 4/5mbps. I'd understand a small drop in speed because of interference, but 15mbps?

I am 100% it is the headphones, I have run 11 speed tests and the results are the same each time, 30mbps when the headphones are off and 5mbps when they are on. Is there any way for me to fix this or am i just screwed?

EDIT - if it wasn't obvious i am on wifi upstairs.

EDIT 2 - I have fixed it, i had the wifi adapter plugged in the back of my pc, i unplugged it and put it in the front and im back to 30mbps. I'm presuming having 2 usb dongles using 2.4ghz right next to each other just causes confusion.
