Oct 20, 2014 7:56 AM in response to tomstephens89by kivdev,I have tried everything, but my wifi at home still works randomly. It's a WPA Personal 2,4ghz network. It works for about 30 secs before it stops. If I'm lucky, I can browse in Chrome for hours with no problems, but it stops working as soon as I open up App Store. Then I have to restart my MBP to get it working again (if I'm lucky...). Right now I'm at work with a WPA2 Personal 5ghz network and have no problems at all. Weird......

Oct 20, 2014 8:06 AM in response to tomstephens89by bburwick,I upgraded to Yosemite on Saturday All other family mac books were still at Mavericks. My MacMini was upgraded, but it was connected to the network via Ethernet Cable.
Only my macbook pro retina (Late 2013) running on Wireless was affected.
Bluetooth has always been turned off. So that is not in conflict.
This morning, I checked my preferred network priority settings ...
System Preferences --> Network --> Wi-fi --> Advanced --> Preferred Networks
My Wireless network had shifted in priority below my iPhone and my iPad.
I selected my Wifi network dragged it to the top. Hit Ok then apply.
It has been two hours. I have not experienced any wireless network failure. Here is hoping.

Oct 20, 2014 8:17 AM in response to bburwickby number5858,Airport Extreme with both 2.5 and 5 GHz set up. Everything worked fine under Mavericks. Upgraded Macbook to Yosemite and I have the same Wifi problems as everyone else. Clear bug. The only thing that has worked 100% of the time for me, so far, is to assign a manual wifi IP address and use manual DNS instead of DHCP.

Oct 20, 2014 8:39 AM in response to tomstephens89by Mikael Al,I have the same problem.
I have a 10 months old MBP retina, and it worked fine until yesterday when I installed Yosemite, now my WiFi drops every other minute and its takes time for it to connect again.
Apparently apple support in Sweden answers this problem with "it has to be an error with your wireless card", which obviously is bull s**t.
This clearly happened to a lot of users since the installation of Yosemite, and is this problem getting fixed soon or do I need to uninstall Yosemite and install Mavericks again?

Oct 20, 2014 8:50 AM in response to Mikael Alby gani_d,The only solution thats working now is that remove the password or encryption of the wifi and make it open wifi. Then it works without any problem.

Oct 20, 2014 9:05 AM in response to tomstephens89by yankopla,Same problem here. Upgraded my macbook pro from Mavericks to Yosemite and since then, wifi connection is really bad. It connects to my wifi but seems like there is no traffic because websites takes too long to open or don't open at all. Apple, please FIX THIS NOW!!!.

Oct 20, 2014 9:19 AM in response to tomstephens89by Anamcr,I did the upgrade 2 days ago and wifi was working fine. When i turned on my laptop this morning, wifi started to fail.
I've tried everything posted here and in other forums. This is just an issue that apple has to workout, and fast.

Oct 20, 2014 9:22 AM in response to tomstephens89by tomstephens89,I am just updating to say that I have so far tried the following and nothing works. I must repeat though that strangely this is only happening for one of the wifi connections I use.
My home wifi which is AC on 5Ghz and N on 2.4 using the talk talk super router. It is this that i am unable to maintain a usable connection with. Every other wifi network seems to be fine.
I have tried re-adding the wifi adapter with a different name, creating a different location, removing the bluetooth plist file but nothing works.
This is a MAJOR bug Apple. OS X Yosemite has got serious issues with Wifi.
