Ok, I agree I'm obsessing. But I just discovered how to switch the Necto wifi off - little button on the side. And my dashcam wifi doesn't turn on unless I deliberately turn it on. So there should not be any wifi conflicts.

I now have the AA Wireless Two on order. Reviews suggest the audio sound quality rivals wired setups. I'll report results in a week or so.

 

For me, the only issue is when my wife wants to use the in car wifi hotspot as the wireless AA interferes. I have to unplug it in that case but that would be the same with any brand.

 

What has been your experience with streamed music quality between using wired versus wireless?

 

Very good in my opinion

 

Good to hear. Thanks. The Amazon shipping time frame is 10 to 14 days. It's always been this long, tariffs, or supply chain issues?

 

Installation took around a half hour. Did a few of the same BT settings over and over a few times as if I was insane. Then I did the trouble shooting thing and the app asked if the car was a Mazda. I answered yes. Then it went through a routine to address the and apparent incompatibility with the Mazda I suppose. The first audio that came out of it sounded like it was from first generation Bluetooth. And the responsiveness was very slow like 30 seconds to address the selected song. But then after several minutes the system seem to get up to speed and became about as responsive as my wired system was. And the audio improved.
I have to say the $40 dongle I first tried was much easier to install more quickly. But the audio was never as clean as this AA wireless seems to be. And with the Necto turned off from it's every few minutes Wi-Fi connection, there is no stuttering/skipping of the music streams.

 

Interesting, for me, I tried several other dongles and could not get any of them to work at all. The AA Wireless dongle is the only one which worked seamlessly for me. It does take a bit to set up, but it is pretty neat that the firmware tells you to update every so often and if the connection does mess up (as you said, the troubleshooting feature always fixes it quickly).
