Q: wifi in MacOS Sierra

After upgrading to Mac OS Sierra wi-Fi keeps disconnecting after Computer wakes from sleep.

Is it something to do with settings or is it a bug?

 

Thanks,

Idan

A:

You need to update Wi-Fi preferences. Just remove the ones you have now. Click on any empty spot on the Desktop and press Command + Shift + G. Now, type in this directory: /Library/Preferences/SystemConfiguration/

In the folder that opened, delete these files:

com.apple.airport.preferences.plist
com.apple.network.identification.plist
com.apple.wifi.message-tracer.plist
NetworkInterfaces.plist
preferences.plist

After these files are gone, reboot your Mac, together with your Wi-Fi router.
