Bluetooth audio stutters every 10-30 on Windows 10

I would like to share my resolution as well since it was different than yours. Funny enough we have almost identical systems, I have an ASRock Fatal1ty AB350 Gaming-ITX/ac motherboard with built-in Bluetooth as well.

My solution was to reconnect the Wi-Fi antennas to the ports on the back I/O panel. I had removed them as I was using an Ethernet cable and had no need for them but it turns out the motherboard is using these antennae for Bluetooth reception.

I had only realized this because I wore my headphones while the sound was stuttering and the reception was terrible once I left my desk. I remembered it used to have a much larger range previously.

I'm hoping this helps, I tried uninstalling / re-installing and re-configuring all my devices to not avail.


I had the same issue and nearly checked out every answer that was to it. It is primarily because of your WiFi and Bluetooth using the same frequency, which is 2.4 GHz. Well some suggested that I buy a Bluetooth USB adapter for a tenner or so, but that beats the whole purpose of having a laptop with great specs as well as overall convenience.

Solution: I got a new router, Dual-band, capable of both 2.4 as well as 5gHz. I turned off the 2.4gHz broadcast from my router settings and everything works now. As an added bonus my internet even works better now thanks to the 5gHz channel. I am in no way sour over the reason that I had to buy a new router to resolve this issue, because of all these new mbits lol.

Go for it!
