thanks to riverbend for pointing me in the direction of killer network service. people seam to be disabling it completely but i found my computer had a app installed called "killer intelligence centre" and it seams to be the control software for the wifi adapter. you dont have to permanently disable it i have gone into settings and turned all options off on this page below

on one of the screens it shows the priority its gives to each app and icloud is the least priority which could be why it was intermittent and kind of worked sometimes. maybe i will try to switch each one on and see which feature is stopping icloud. its not the whole software by the looks of it.

It's not Microsoft. The Killer Network suite is owned by Intel, and in my case it shipped with new Dell hardware. The problem is that all of these corporations are too big and too "perfect" to listen to the little guys like us or anyone else, including each other. For me, the bigger question is - what are Apple doing about it? It is they who should be resolving this with Intel. iCloud is not an insignificant part of their product portfolio.
