Interestingly it seems USB2 drives work....

Just pluging in a usb2cable into my usb 3 drive and it works fine. If i use a usb3 cable into the same drive then it stops wifi from working, but only when i'm using the external hard disk.

USB 3 uses more pins than a USB 2 cable. I do think from your description and the fact that a 3.0 thumb drive does work either that there's a problem with the port.
