More on my own question.
It turns out that bluetooth runs on the same frequencies as woreless
b/g/n. Bluetooth also uses frequency switching to the extent that it
didn't help to relocate my wireless N connection to either end of the
supported spectrum. Wireless ethernet and bluetooth are simply not
compatable in the same area. I will have to keep my USB mouse handy for
those times that I am making heave use of the wireless.
Thank goodness I didn't go out and buy that bluetooth headset...
