If @spikey_richie's answer doesn't help, you may want to rule out whether it's the BT radio in the earbuds, the BT radio on the PC, or interference (BT uses ~2.4GHz spectrum IIRC - fact check that to be sure). To rule out the first two, try different BT ear buds/headphones, and to rule out interference, if it's a laptop, move it around the house, but if it's a PC, ensure it's not within ~30' of any electronics that use the same spectrum, including refrigerators and other appliances that use >220V; if it is, turn off those electronics/flip the breaker off momentarily to check for improvement– JW0914Commented Feb 16, 2021 at 13:02

@JW0914 Refrigerators and other appliances that use >220V typically use 50 Hz or 60 Hz, not 2.4 GHz. The latter is used by microwave ovens when they're operating.– Andrew MortonCommented Feb 16, 2021 at 13:10

@AndrewMorton I'm aware of that, thank you. The higher voltage and amperage used by appliances can cause EMF interference with WiFi signals depending on where they're located relative to the client and host, and is why it should be checked by simply switching their breaker(s) off, verifying if it results in any improvement, then flipping the breakers back on; due to this not being as common as the former, it's why it was listed last.– JW0914Commented Feb 16, 2021 at 13:21

USB 3 is known to be capable of interfering with devices using 2.4 GHz (Intel white paper). Can you move the Bluetooth antenna away from any USB 3 devices?– Andrew MortonCommented Feb 16, 2021 at 13:23

How to Format
-
create code fences with backticks ` or tildes ~
```
like so
``` -
add language identifier to highlight code
```python
def function(foo):
print(foo)
``` - put returns between paragraphs
- for linebreak add 2 spaces at end
- _italic_ or **bold**
- indent code by 4 spaces
- backtick escapes
`like _so_` - quote by placing > at start of line
- to make links (use https whenever possible)
<https://example.com>
[example](https://example.com)
<a href="https://example.com">example</a>
How to Tag
A tag is a keyword or label that categorizes your question with other, similar questions. Choose one or more (up to 5) tags that will help answerers to find and interpret your question.
- complete the sentence: my question is about...
- use tags that describe things or concepts that are essential, not incidental to your question
- favor using existing popular tags
- read the descriptions that appear below the tag
If your question is primarily about a topic for which you can't find a tag:
- combine multiple words into single-words with hyphens (e.g. windows-7), up to a maximum of 35 characters
- creating new tags is a privilege; if you can't yet create a tag you need, then post this question without it, then ask the community to create it for you
