Bluetooth always uses 2.4GHz, so this alternative isn't available for Bluetooth.IMPORTANT: We've released a new version of Box Drive (v.2.24.193) built on Apple File Provider Extensions (FPE) supported on macOS 11.5, and above, that provides seamless access and support on M1 devices. You can change this on your wireless base station.

To avoid interference on the 2.4GHz band using Wi-Fi, try using the 5GHz band instead.These ports are the farthest away from the antennas, making interference less likely. If you're using adapters or dongles on a Mac computer with Thunderbolt 3 (USB-C) ports, plug them into the front port on the left side of your Mac, or into the ports on the right side (if your computer has them).The antennas for Wi-Fi and Bluetooth are located there, and USB 3 devices placed there might interfere with your wireless connections. If your USB device has a cable long enough that you can move the device, place it away from your Mac-and make sure not to place it behind your Mac, or near the hinge of its display.Some USB 3 devices can generate radio frequency interference that can cause Wi-Fi and Bluetooth devices operating in the 2.4GHz band to have issues communicating with your computer. Why do I have difficulty with Wi-Fi or Bluetooth devices when USB 3 devices are attached to my computer?
