Crackling sound when Downloading at high speeds

Hi!

I have a annoying problem with my Dell L702x i5-2430M @ 2.4 and  Intel Centrino Advanced-N 6230. When I reach high downloading speeds (4-9mb/s) and have music on ( laptop speakers, using media player classic build version 1.5.2.3456) I hear some intense crackling sound from the speakers, but only when the music is on, whenever I pause the music the crackling stops. If I stop my downloads then the crackling sound dissapears.

Any idea what the cause of this is?

Thanks!

Hi,

I have a theory.

It could be the frequency of your Wifi signal, when you increase the volume of your speakers it becomes susceptible to higher frequencies. I believe you are using 5Ghz ? Its recommended to use 2.4Ghz

Apart from this there is no connection between your speakers and Wifi.

No sure about others, and you dont need to send the system for repair. Just switch back to 2.4Ghz and it would be fine.

I never suggest using 5Ghz.
