OSX Yosemite Wifi issues

Hi,

I am having similar issues with Yosemite and Mac mini 2014 - experiencing random slow downs on 2.4GHz or 5GHz. I have dual band Asus router N66U - its a stable router, so it is not the issue here.

The connection starts to slow down few minutes after the boot up.

For me the solution is: disabling wifi (the menu bar) and re-enabling wifi makes the WAN connection stable.

Other solutions (removing network preferences, etc.) did not worked for me. I have no clue whats is going.

Are you able to login to either ghz?

It's worthless discuss about my wifi 5GHz problem ..... Everybody have the same issue!

APPLE!!! What's going on? Everybody have the same errors! Fix Fix Fix.

Hi, when we contributors here say "dropping wifi" do we always mean losing connectivity over wifi between machine and router/modem, and NOT router/modem losing connection to internet?

On a different note I read this a while back

In it's truest form of "dropping wifi" imho, yes it means the pc/device lost connection to the router.

Don't use your routers default DNS settings.

Add Googles DNS servers to your computers wifi network settings and see if that fixes the issue.

8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4

There is info out here in the compost seed bed but NDA etc says we can't talk about it but 🙂 🙂 🙂

Nil desperandum

I've been blazing for a few hours with no breakdowns after changing the DNS.

That's odd, I wonder who the Engineer who emails me every day from Apple works for then and why others are risking their peace of mind to improve YoUR OS?

Could you maybe be more specific about the corrupt files you deleted? Which files are these and where are they located?

Computers are inglorious ********, but we are supposed to live with them. Get real.

...and you won't, becuase you have found the best fix for the Yosemite WiFi and Ethernet issues and that is to go back to Mavericks.

Switch my laptop to mavericks again and has been stable for 3 days.

And the bug continues... Still waiting for Apple to fix it.

Hope they´ll release 10.10.2 as soon as possible with a fix.. different from 10.10.1 that was supposed to fix it.. but it didn´t. :/

Experiencing the Wifi dropping as well, apparently at random. I've turned off BT as some suggested, maybe that will help. A permanent fix would be nice though.
