Macbook Pro 13 inch Late 2012 Wifi Problem

Hello, I have a Macbook Pro 13 inch late 2012 with wifi problems. At times, my mac would say i'm still conected to the internet, but I cant get online. I've used different browsers, and I even tried updating my mac using the app store, but still nothing. I checked my other devices (Ipad 2, smartphone, ipod touch), and they all can get online. The only way I can fix this problem is when I reset my router, or I restart my mac. This happens on random days at random times. Does anyone have any idea on how I can fix this? Thanks

MacBook Pro, OS X Mountain Lion (10.8)

Hi CedC!

I have a couple of articles here that can help you troubleshoot this issue further. First, you may want to look over this article for troubleshooting Wi-Fi in OS X:

You may also want to check out the Wi-Fi Quick Assist, which will walk you through some basic troubleshooting steps for Wi-Fi issues. That quick assist article can be found here:

And just in case you need it, this article is about the recommended router settings for using iOS and OS X:

Thanks for using the Apple Support Communities!
