Wifi Stop to Work after USB 3.0 On

Question

Hello guys,

I think its my second topic here. My lattepanda is the last version (CR200 4GB), Windows 10 64x and never had this kind of problem in any computer.

The wifi network works normally, until I turn my external drive on, after this the lattepanda stops to navigate and stay the yellow exclamation on Wifi. Can please someone help me? Attachments

Metallic shield helps quite a bit.
It's a form of shielding the RFI (Radio Frequency Interference) problem.

WiFi 2.4GHz and USB3 super speed have mutual interference in between each other.
Common strategy is to either
- use WiFi 5 GHz band,
- move the WiFi antenna and USB3 port as far as possible, or
- use a high-quality USB3 shielded cable or USB3 extension cable to separate the USB3 leaked signal from WiFi signal source (its antenna)

Unfortunately It is what it is. WiFi folks and USB org obviously were doing their own things in their own little universe.

Thank you for your answer.

I never had this problem before, I'm using the USB3.0 but I even use 50% of the power of USB 3.0. Unfortunately the first version of lattepanda doesnt have 5.0Ghz, I'm using the "default" case, so its impossible to let them far each other. But thank you, I never had or read about this problem, Tried to search something but couldn't find anything in special.

PS: When I put my flash drive 3.0 it doesn't happen, just with the SATA Case, so sad.
