Q: OSX Yosemite Wifi issues

Seems there are multiple different problems with WiFi, I have never experienced my WiFi dropping.

Thanks Thomas: sadly I am in a far worse position than at any time since upgrading to 10.101.1: after waking up from the first sleep since carrying out the safe boot as advised to you my machine just refused to get beyond the fuzzy Yosemite screen; I had trouble logging in and then the most awfully slow everything.  After a few minutes of the spinning beachball from **** I switched off and on.

I was at least able to log in reasonably easily but the speed is still n times worse than usual.  Content of Mail messages take for ever to appear, Safari browsing is slow; now I know what all the poor sods have been experiencing this past week.

Ironically wifi connection is EASY!!!!

I am going to do some Utility heavy lifting  and an SMC Controller reset; not sure why probably because I can and moving always beats sitting in a traffic jam....

Here is a suggestion for those of you on social media:

Make a concise list of all the issues surrounding Yosemite and the lack of response from Apple and post it. The more the better.

I'm going down a different path. As an Apple shareholder, I'm embarrassed and angered by this and will be contacting the shareholder relations manager. I've had some success with this approach with other companies, so we'll see. If any of you are Apple shareholders, I suggest that you do the same.

Have copied every item in the Community pages relating to Yosemite onto FaceBook and in a separate post identified the numbers viewing the wifi thread

Tryied AWDL off with no success. My problem is only with the Macbook pro and ASUS RT-AC87R. Works perfect on timecapsule.

Update: after another sleep, it woke up much better than 1st and Safari not so slow as 2 hours ago, Mail messages appearing more quickly  I am on ethernet but thats still an improvement on this afternoon without changing anything.

Sorry about this. Hope it works out. The Apple support person I talked to is to call me friday. Let´s see what he recommends.

This solution or at least root cause theory has been authoritatively challenged BUT others say it's working. But I have applied lota of fixes that work for a while then drop out

Both sublinks in the TUAW article have been posted here. A.o. by me last night. And challenged. The issue seems to be more complex. Sorry...

Apple plz fix problem.... the connection wifi yosemite 10.10.1 is lost.

i have a iMac late 2009. plz fix the bug

also the problem occurs in Hibernate connection wifi lost after return desktop.

People,

Let's make some noise. No apple employee are reading us here.

I've just wrote my feedback detailing my mac, OS and router. I recommend we all do the same:

Sorry if the info was out of date just  seen the article and thought it may be of use to some one

MY God, I have gone through every fix on this thread...absolutely nothing worked!

Same to me: deleting preferences files, changing network preferences, network locations, service order, PRAM reset, awdl0 down - nothing worked.

I have sent over a dozen diagnostic reports...
