On Raspberry Pi3, the bluetooth scanning interrupts wifi signals.

Once this tool was running, it was actually very difficult to get back into the device to shut it down because it automatically loads on startup after install. Ultimately, I was able to figure out how to disable it, and bought a USB bluetooth (and disabled the factory one) and it works great.

Maybe, at least, a warning for the README?

I'm seeing the same issue - can you tell me what adapter you used and how you can configure it?

From memory, I think just plugging it in worked. There are some ways to disable the built-in bluetooth (which I did after that). Can't recall all the steps, but something like:
