WIFI connectivity not working correctly after updating to BigSur 11.1 IOS

Hello, since I updated my MacBook Pro to BigSur 11.1, my MacBook Pro has had difficulty connecting to my WiFi. I never had problems before, with my MacBook Pro, with previous versions of IOS. And even now, concurrently, I never have problems with my iPad which is on iPad IOS 14.2, and my wife had a PC that never has problems looking in through our WiFi system.


So it appears that you changed in BigSur 11.1 that is causing this problem. This morning, after trying about 4 times, and even after restarting my MacBook Pro, it still wouldn't connect to WiFi. And then I rebooted my WiFi, and then my MacBook Pro finally connected to my WiFi. I shouldn't have to reboot my WiFi, especially since all our other computer systems are connecting fine to my WiFi.


Please fix BigSur. It is a real nuisance to have to shut down my WiFi, every time I have to turn on my MacBook Pro.


Thank you,

Carl G

Hi,

Try to analyze your WiFi environment with wireless Diagnostics.
