MacOS Ventura is completely broken and impossible to use on my MacBook Pro 16 2019 Since I have updated my MacBook Pro 16" 2019 to the MacOSX Ventura 13, it has gone completely out of hand. My internet connection fails every 2 seconds and I can not even send an email. I have to refresh every page I browse at least two times. It keeps giving me "no internet connection error". Its full of bugs and despite the fact that I have reinstalled the OS three times already and talked to apple support team, still does not function. Please help.

Wifi interface is missing after updating mac OS Monterey Hello all, Surprisingly, I am facing a wifi/Bluetooth interface issue in my MacBook Pro in early 2015 13" inch after updating the system software. The wifi symbol is showing with a '!' mark. Bluetooth is working fine for now. But I can't see any wifi/Bluetooth interfaces to add, minus, or edit in the list. right now I am using the internet via LAN cable. I have found similar articles but with a different OS and MacBook device also. I would like to know the technical aspects behind this issue if possible. I have tried soft reset also. If anybody has any idea on this, please do suggest to resolve the issue. Any suggestion is appreciated. Please find the images inserted. Wifi enable/disable option is greyed out.

ventura system settings network settings submenu missing (the actual network settings pane is blank) iMac 27” Ventura 13.1 Systems Settings -> Network has no info on the submenu (or rightside pane). It’s blank. I can run the terminal command networksetup and all my ethernet settings will display and I have no problem with ethernet connectivity. Only the System Settings do not display. I have tried safe mode, a new admin user, a new standard user, and reinstalled Ventura. Nothing changed. On this iMac the System Preference is broken (it works fine on my wife’s MacBook). Additionally, in Wifi, clicking on details does not work. The Details button is not greyed out. Clicking on it does not open the next window. I also booted to recovery and ran first aid in disk util for Data, HD, & Volumes and all checked ok. Love to have a solution to this mess.

Hi rdgc,

We understand you are unable to connect to the Internet using third party web browsers.

We would recommend removing the web browsers, then reinstalling them.

It may also be worth your time to create a new Network Location. You can learn how to do so here: How to use network locations on your Mac.

Hope this helps!

Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.

Cheers!
