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.
