Bluetooth Lag

Bluetooth Lag with Intel 11th generation devices
 
Is anyone having an issue with bluetooth lag on 11th gen Intel devices?

The lag appears when I connect an external bluetooth keyboard and mouse.  Every couple of minutes my mouse or keyboard fails to respond in a timely manner.  This results in jerky mouse movements and delayed typing.


I have tried two different sets of external keyboards and mice.  No change in behavior.  Both keyboard mouse sets suffer from periodic lag.  Here is the equipment that I have tried:
 
- Dell KM717
- Dell 7321w
 
My system:


Dell XPS 17 9710 with Intel i7, 11th gen processor
32 gb ram
1 tb ssd
Windows 10 Pro 21H1
Nvidia 3060 GPU
Killer Wi-Fi 6 AX1650 (2 x 2) and Bluetooth 5.1
17.0" UHD+ (3840 x 2400 display
 
Software resolutions attempted:
 
I have tried the Bluetooth and Killer drivers on the Dell support site.  After much frustration, I uninstalled these drivers in the device manager, rebooted and installed the latest Intel drivers from Intel.com  Unfortunately, no change in behavior.


Finally, I wiped the system and reinstalled Windows 10.  This time I ignored the Dell drivers and installed the latest Intel drivers, no change in behavior.


At this point I wondered if there was an interference issue.  So I setup an Apple iMac running MacOS 11.6 and a MacBook Pro 16 running Windows 10 Pro 21H1.  No issues of lag with either machine over a two day period.


Does anyone know if there is a fix in the works?  Or does anyone have a solution?

    Above steps?  Which steps?  Please enlighten me.  Thank you!

    These are the steps that I have done up to this point.

    Tried two different Dell Bluetooth Keyboard and mouse combos.  KM717, KM7321w

    I am experiencing the same problem with a brand new Logitech MX Mini bluetooth keyboard. (It was super expensive and is supposed to be the best after LOTS of research.)

    I have checked that the keyboard works on my wife's (different brad) laptop fine.  It is my Dell XPS that seems to be the problem.
