The 2.4 GHz band with which Bluetooth™ devices or wireless LAN devices work, is used by various devices. Bluetooth™ devices use the technology
to minimize the interference from other devices that use the same wave length. Communication speed and distances can be inferior to the standard
values. Interference from other devices may also stop communications.
