Don't know if this can help.

I have a different Acer than you.  Mine has built in BT

 

Acer Aspire V3-77G-9804   Win8/64 factory

 

My WiFi was working fine, very fast.  Bought a BT headset.. Samsung HM1700. (Wife has one, works fine on her PC)

Anyway....

When I would enable the BT and stream Music to my Headset... the WiFi would sloooow waaaay down.  Music would stop/start.

I watched my download speed with www.speedtest.net and found when I enable the BT, it would effect my WiFi Speed ... dramatically.

 

I searched and searched, made sure my BT and WiFi drivers were current... still a problemBluetooth USB 

Bluetooth USB Module -- Qualcomm Atheros Communications   8.0.0.220

WiFi module - Qualcomm Atheros AR5BWB222  10.0.0.225

 

I was about to unload and reload the BT and WiFi drivers... but first I tried to simply Disable the BT and WiFi drivers ... then rebooted the Acer..., then enabled the BT and WiFi.... problem went away, streams fine and with BT streaming, the speeds stay fast both upload and download...(23meg down, 25meg up)... so far anyway, all is well.

 

Hope this helps.

 

 UPDATE June 16.

I've been playing more with the BlutTooth... clearly when I connect my BT, it effects my WiFi... After I did above, it did improve, but still when BT is connected my WiFi seems to 'hang' intermittently... meaning the streaming freezes for a few seconds to a minute... I don't have my finger on it, but it seems a driver is not behaving properly.  I will update this if I figure out more.
