Q: OSX Yosemite Wifi issues

Hi there,

 

I upgraded my Macbook Pro Retina 15" (mid 2014 revision) to OS X Yosemite last night and am now having issues when using my home WiFi connection. Whilst it connects to either the 5Ghz or 2.4Ghz network, it is basically unusable. Web pages take minutes to load (if they even load at all), dropbox doesn't sync because it can't get a connection and even trying to get to the router config page is extremely slow and hit/miss.

 

Tethering to my iPhone seems to work ok, as does using my home network via wired ethernet.

 

Are any others having problems with Yosemite? Wifi was working fine on Mavericks.

 

Tom

MacBook Pro with Retina display, OS X Yosemite (10.10)

    Same problem here. Very frustrating. Can't even begin to do my college homework because wifi drops every other minute.

    Quickly trying to post this before it drops again. Apple where are you? We could use a little help. As of right now, this "update"

    is useless and has made my computer inoperable.

    My sister has the same problem. We have identical mid 2012 macbook pro 13 inch with the i7 and 8gb. Only difference is that I have a ssd. We updated to yosemite at the same time. Her wifi drops every few minutes but my wifi works perfectly anywhere. We use the same network. I think it is a software issue.

    Reset SMC.  This worked for my mid 2012 MBP.  So far so good.

    I had the same problem, turning off the Bluetooth and toggling the wifi clears the problem, but looking forward to have a fix from Apple.

    So this is really strange, but if I have something streaming like netflix or pandora the the connection never drops. Stop the streaming and the issue reappears. This is nuts but it looks like a keep alive is losing its mind.

    I have an Ipad that I made the mistake of updating with IOS 8.0.1 and then the supposed fix 8.0.2.  Having nothing but issues with the Update, extremely frustrating.  With my Mac and my NEW MacBook Air, was told to update with Yosemite, was solid.  Again another major mistake updating, WIFI only works for a couple of minutes and then drops my connection. Was told by the experts absolutely do not update my iPhone.


     

    Asked Apple if I can down grade and there position is that it’s not possible.  This has become an absolute joke and Apple does not seem to care!!  Was looking at a iPad mini for business, was suggested look at Samsung.

    Did anyone notice that this only started after the release of iOS 8.1? Yosemite worked fine all weekend, but after I installed 8.1 and paired my iPhone to the Mac for SMS the problems with Wifi began.

    You may have something there. Mine worked well over the weekend and just started going nuts Tuesday, after the 8.1 update..

    Same here, MacBook Pro (Retina, Mid 2012) tried just about everything suggested here to no avail. Hope that Apple will come up with a solution sooner than later.

    For those that already haven't... Go here and fill in an Apple feedback report:
