wifi problem with yosemite 10.10.2

i still have wifi problem with yosemite 10.10.2. I use D-link Dir615. My ipad and iphone have no problem with this route. My Laptop ( rmpb 2013 early 15 inch ) has no problem with another router TP-Link. I'm just confused why it works so badly with my D-Link!!!!!

MacBook Pro with Retina display, OS X Yosemite (10.10.2)

Hello, so, as mentioned I had this issue in 10.10.2 (very intermittent internet connection, unable to connect to network etc). Deactivating bluetooth solved it (of course you then need wired mouse and keyboard), but on updating to 10.10.3 this does now (and I say this cautiously) seem to have fixed the problem. I am currently browsing happily with bluetooth on... let's hope it lasts.

I fixed the problem in my Mac Pro.


These were the steps I followed:

- reinstalled Yosemite twice. This didn't help because Apple force all the updates to be included in any new installation, including the one that breaks the WiFi.

- tried to install Windows 7 from a DVD. I couldn't really pass from the initial screen because the mouse and keyboard didn't work, but I'm mentioning this because I can't tell if this had any effect on the network card.

- installed Windows 8 with Boot Camp

- formatted everything again and reinstalled Yosemite 10.10.3, the connection is perfect for 4 days in a row


I'm still having a hard time to believe Windows fixed a Mac Pro, but I'm not the first one who tried and was successful.


Hope this helps someone

I tried for four days to fix my wi-fi problem (won't connect and sloooow) and finally found a site regarding a conflict with Bluetooth PAN. Go to system prefs/network and delete "Bluetooth PAN" and press "Apply". Now here's the thing! Click the "Add new service" +, write in "Bluetooth PAN", apply and again delete it. Apply again. Seems there is a hidden Bluetooth PAN in Yosemite, I wish I had the site address still. MacMini 10.10.4. I don't need the Bluetooth connectivity on my desktop so It works for me.
