Q: MacBook cant find my network?

Hello

 

I am currently having the problem, that my Macbook Pro, seems to not find my Wi-Fi networks sometimes. It is very weird. I have tried re installing my Macbook to factory settings. I had this problem in El Capitan, and now when i upgraded to macOS Sierra, i am still having the problem.

 

So the thing is, every time i connect to a network, it is all fine, but after around 5-15 minutes, my Macbook suddenly loses the network. It still says Wi-Fi is on, but there is no available networks. When i turn off the Wi-Fi, it cant find the other networks and the Wi-Fi wont turn on, like when i press the button "Turn On Wi-Fi" nothing happens.

 

I have also tried putting in the network manually, but it still does not find it. When i go into advanced settings, and i try to add one of my "prefered" networks, by clicking the plus button, and i press the "show networks" button, i can find my neighbors but not my own. So basically my own network dissapears.

 

It is indeed very weird, but when i shut down my computer and turn it on again, it seems to be able to find the networks, and connect to them, but after 5-15 minutes, same thing happens.

 

This problem has been occurring at my own house, and my school, and it is very irritating. I hope you can help me with my problem.

 

If you have any suggestions/questions, please let me know!

MacBook Pro, macOS Sierra (10.12)
