Q: Intermittent WiFi connection on late-2103 Retina MacBook Pro 13"

Today I have been experiencing increasing issues with being able to stay online on my MacBook Retina, so bad now that I am writing this from my desktop Windows PC which is hardwired into the router; which, by the way, has had not a single issue all day. My internet has been working fine and I have verified this on both my PC and iPhone. My Mac seems to loose internet connection at random times while browsing the internet, without warning or any kind of error, and WiFi is still connected, just internet stops. Sometimes it returns, the majority of the time it does not, and it requires me to switch WiFi on and off again... no big deal, right? Only today the normal fix does not work and I have had to physcially reboot my Mac TWICE today just to get my internet to start working again! What is going on? I can't even seem to find Network Utility anymore to diagnose the issue. I haven't had WiFi issues this bad since Lion.

 

My OS of course is Mavericks, comes as standard on my machine. My spec is kind of irrelevant but it is the base model 2.6GHz Intel i5, everything stock apart from the hard drive which is a 500GB SSD.

 

Please help! It is infuriating and I can't now reliably use my Mac on WiFi, this has been increasingly bad in the last two days.

iMac, OS X Mountain Lion
