Incompatibility between wireless and bluetooth (Inspire 15 3521)

Hi, I have a Inspire 15 3521 running over windows 8 and constantly the internet fall down despite the excellent signal.
The limited word appears and I'm obliged restart the connection and some times the laptop. I did the changes on configuration like Dell suggested and the wireless works a little bit better until the bluetooth turns on.

When the bluetooth is on the wireless fall down immediately and the limited word appers again. Sometimes it works but not for long.

The updates are up to date (windows 8 and drivers Dell).

Do you have any ideas?

Thanks.

Hi Nikhil,

I did all steps you said and the problem continues. I reinstalled the Bluetooth and Wireless drives.
I don't know where's the problem if the Windows or the hardware.
Do you have another suggestion?
Thanks.
