[MacTUG] Yosemite and Wi-Fi issues

[Mike Patterson]

I’ve been having similar symptoms at home since I replaced my main desktop Core2Duo iMac with an i7 (mid 2011) - same issue with 10.8/10.9 and even Windows (it’s boot camped). Dual-radio AP (“Cisco” E4200), sometimes switching from 5GHz to 2.4 helps (but then so much interference), often turning wireless off and on again helps. Sometimes nothing helps at all. Meanwhile, my iPhone has little trouble, wife’s iPad same same, my Air is solid, and the old C2D machine is too.

I don’t know if it’s more “Yosemite has wireless issues” than “Apple wireless is kind of dodgy the last few years of hardware upgrades, and it’s affecting more and more people.”

Or maybe my own problems are completely unrelated to what he’s talking about.
