You can guess, but unless you have special knowledge you aren't likely to guess correctly. The critical FMS wireless communication takes place on the 5 GHz WiFi band, and won't even notice 2.4 GHz signals unless they are unreasonably powerful. Bluetooth is a low-power, short-range system that typically doesn't disrupt WiFi on 2.4 GHz anyway.
