    Same issue here on 2013 macbook air 13", 10.10.3. Had wifi issue since 10.10.1. Definitely a software issue. I installed windows via bootcamp and Wifi is working perfectly fine. Guess i have to stick with windows on my macbook air for a little longer. Hope Apple is taking this issue seriously, no fix after 2 updates?!

    Hi, got the same problem with Yosemite 10.10.2. A nightmare! Just downloaded the update 10.10.3. Let's see how it settles the issue as it is suppose to be an improvement on WIFI issue stability.

    If not, try to follow the step on OSX daily

    I don't know if this will help anyone having Wifi problems after 10.10.3 update, but what worked for me is that i changed the IPv6 configuration from "automatic" to "link-local only".
    Open Network preferences > Advanced > TCP/IP tab > Configure IPv6: Link-local only

    I had a similar issue on my MacBook Pro (Retina, 15-inch, Late 2013) right after updating to 10.10.3. Every 5 minutes or so my Wi-Fi just stopped working. The problem seems to have resolved when I removed the last.fm scrobbler app.

    Hi,

     

    In my MBP15 mid 2014, the problem appears only when BT is on using magic mouse. When I switch it off the wifi works perfect without interruptions.


    I have tried all the fixes found in the forums, but any worked for me.

    Just a quick surf of the net - reading just the blips that show - wi-fi is an on going problem with Yosemite.

     

    So you all should be reporting your problems to Apple via their support portal

     

    Or

     

    at least give bug feed back at    http://www.apple.com/feedback/

    (You can also point them to this thread - for more detail)

    I had no problem with wifi on my 2013 MBP until I installed 10.10.3, then the disconnect problem started. Disabled Bluetooth and the problem disapppeared.

    After updating to OS 10.10.3 yesterday, my Macbook Pro 15' retina can not connect to internet through home wifi anymore. After chatting with Apple Support staff, I did the PRAM reset which solved the problem. Now my wifi internet access is back to normal.

     

    To do PRAM reset, you first turn off your mac. While holding Option, Command, R and P, and On-Off switch, wait for the startup sound twice, then release all the keys. You will hear the startup sound one more time. Once your system is up, the network should work now (if you have the same problem as mine). Hope it helps!

    I forgot that I also rebooted my wifi router. If PRAM reset does not do the trick, try this too.

    My wifi broke as soon as i installed the first Yosemite release in October 2014. So far, three Yosemite patches, and none of them have fixed it:

     

    Yosemite 10.10 Wifi broke

    Yosemite 10.10.1 Wifi still doesn't work.

    Yosemite 10.10.2 Wifi still doesn't work.

    Yosemite 10.10.3 Wifi still doesn't work.

     

     

    04.09.2015 at 1:37am starting running and monitoring wifi after update to OS X Yosemite 10.10.3 (14D131)

    04.11.2015 at 8:04pm, after having been out all day, arrive home to find that wifi has dropped.

     

     

    regards,

    Step 7

    Reset the System Management Controller.

    Reset the PRAM.

    So my intermittent connection problems seem to be related to iCloud Photo Library uploading in the background. 

     

    I can reproduce the problem by pinging an internet address (say www.google.com),  Response times will be between 300-600ms. 

    Going to photos -> preferences, and "pause for one day" in the iCloud section will immediately fix the network problem.  Resuming the connection will cause the problem again after 10 seconds.

     

    Something for everyone else to try.
