Q: WIFI and MacBook Pro: not a good pair!
I have over the last few weeks had problems with the network.
I have a wireless router standing in the living room, one TL-WR841N, for my 100 m / bit connection that really has worked fine for a long time. However, it is now beginning to be extremely slow on my Macbook Pro while my windows laptop or iPhone do not have the same problem.
When I use the web on my mac is a kind of delay - ie. that when I enter a page or the buffer is so slow or it just completely jumps of the WIFI.
I have researched a lot on the net about the problem and tried the following:
a Changed my DNS in WIFI properties
b Changed my broadcasting channel in WIFI on the router
c Reset my router to factory settings and made a new setup
d Reset my Mac and put on a new install - it needed anyway.
e Turn Bluetoth on and off
f Tried FireFox instead of Safari
g Turning the router off and on
The most weird thing is when I take a speed test I get a good reading.

With internet cable:
The readings are good but the reality is something else.
Please forgive my pictures - they are in danish, but the message is still clear...
Help???
MacBook Pro, iOS 6.1.4
