My wifi disconnects every few days or so and I have removed the preferred network from network preferences and logged back in with password, have removed the plist files from System Configuration folder and restarted the computer to get wifi back.
Joey, try this...
Make a New Location, Using network locations in Mac OS X ...
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2712
System Preferences>Network, top of window>Locations>Edit Locations, little plus icon, give it a name.
System Preferences>Network, click on the little gear at the bottom next to the + & - icons, (unlock lock first if locked), choose Set Service Order.
The interface that connects to the Internet should be dragged to the top of the list.
Sys Prefs>Network>highlight the Interface you're using>Advanced>TCP/IP>Configure IPv4: Using DHCP.
If using Wifi, instead of joining your Network from the list, click the WiFi icon at the top, and click join other network. Fill in everything as needed.
System Preferences>Network>choose interface>Advanced>Proxies Tab, make sure none are set, like for HTTP & HTTPS.
System Preferences>Network, unlock the lock if need be, highlight the Interface you use to connect to Internet, click on the advanced button, click on the DNS tab, click on the little plus icon, then add these numbers...
8.8.8.8
8.8.4.4
1.1.1.1
9.9.9.9
Apply.
