Wireless LAN crashes all the time

Question

Wireless LAN crashes all the time

Since the update to Version 7.6.3 a couple of days ago, the wireless connection crashes all the time. Sometimes after 3 minutes but at least after 10 minutes its down and you have to connect again by yourself. Sometimes one out of my 3 networks isn't listed for a minute and I can't connect.

I have the same problem on my other MacBook and I think its the same on my iPad, but there it is difficult to say, because of the cellular.

I already restarted my Airport Extreme, but its still the same, so I'm quite sure it is the update!

It is so annoying to work with that, does somebody knows any solutions?

Yes, revert back to version 7.6.1. I think this is possible in v6 by Option-clicking the version number and then you will be able to revert the firmware. In version 5.6 just go to Base Station>Upload Firmware.

When I click on the Version just the number of the Version changes to another. Normally it is 7.6.3, after the click it's 76300.7. I already looked through all the options in the Airport program but I can't find anything which allows me to change the software.

OK, try downloading and installing AirPort Utility 5.6 following this guide:

Then, use the version 5.6 method stated above.
