Hi,
I have a prproble on my XP,

How can I fix that?

You should check with a 5Ghz router or a different router.

Hi @Breen and welcome to the forum!

Often WiFi and Bluetooth use the same frequency band, 2,4 GHz. As @alexdon said, try connecting to a router using the 5GHz band instead.

Actually, the best way to avoid this problem is to set up the router to have different ssids per band and avoiding the 5ghz connection.

Some months ago I wrote a very long thread here that explain why I advise to use the 2.4ghz: /t5/Xperia-C5-Ultra/WiFi-5ghz-of-troubles/m-p/1130531#U1130531
