After update to 10.9.1. wifi dropouts

hi,
after updating to 10.9.1. experiencing frequent wifi dropouts. so far used 5GHz and experienced the dropouts  (router: linksys ea4200). currently using 2.4GHz so far without dropout. but also speed slowed down significantly.
anyone experiencing similar problems?

I think the problem is due to incompatibility with your dreadful Linksys router, but you can try the following steps. Back up all data before making any changes.
Step 1
Take all the applicable steps in this support article. If you're running OS X 10.8.4 or later, run Wireless Diagnostics and take the remedial steps suggested in the summary that appears, if any. The program also generates a large file of information about your system, which would be used by Apple Engineering in case of a support incident. Don't post the contents here.
Step 2
Run Software Update and install all available updates for OS X or your computer's firmware.
Step 3
If you're not using a wireless keyboard or trackpad, disable Bluetooth by selecting Turn Bluetooth Off from the menu with the Bluetooth icon. If you don't have that menu, open the Bluetooth preference pane in System Preferences and check the box marked Show Bluetooth in menu bar. Test. Continue if you find that Wi-Fi is faster with Bluetooth disabled.
From that same menu, select Open Bluetooth Preferences. If the box labeled Discoverable is checked, uncheck it. Click the Advanced button, and in the sheet that opens, uncheck the top three boxes, if any are checked. Click OK. Enable Bluetooth and test again.
If the application called "Bluetooth Setup Assistant" is running, quit it. Note: this is not applicable to OS X 10.9 or later.
Step 4
This step will erase all your settings in the Network preference pane. Make a note of them before you begin, and recreate them afterwards. It may be helpful to take screenshots of the preference pane.
Triple-click the line below on this page to select it:
/Library/Preferences/SystemConfiguration
Right-click or control-click the highlighted line and select
Services ▹ Reveal
from the contextual menu.* A folder should open with an item named "SystemConfiguration" selected. Move the selected item to the Trash. You may be prompted for your administrator password.
*If you don't see the contextual menu item, copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. In the Finder, select
Go ▹ Go to Folder...
from the menu bar, paste into the box that opens (command-V). You won't see what you pasted because a line break is included. Press return.
Step 5
Reset the System Management Controller.
Step 6
Make a "Genius" appointment at an Apple Store, or go to another authorized service center.
Back up all data on the internal drive(s) before you hand over your computer to anyone. There are ways to back up a computer that isn't fully functional — ask if you need guidance.
If privacy is a concern, erase the data partition(s) with the option to write zeros* (do this only if you have at least two complete, independent backups, and you know how to restore to an empty drive from any of them.) Don’t erase the recovery partition, if present. 
Keeping your confidential data secure during hardware repair
*An SSD doesn't need to be zeroed.

  • After updating to efi 1.2 wifi slow, finder freezes

    After updating Mail, iBooks and EFI (late MBPr 2013, 15") the finder froze several times and wifi became very slow (20 MBits max!). Is there any possibility to return to the former state?

    It appears you've done everything apple would suggest, but here's their support document on the subject just in case you over looked something:

  • After update mac os 10.9 wifi LOST CONNECTION

    After I update the lastest operation system, my air lost connection frequently. Each time I have to manually turn off the Wi-Fi for half minute. Then turn it up and it works again. It has happen for dozens of times. Is there anyway to fix it?

    I had same problem.  Warning -- I am no expert, but tried some things out of desparation and one worked.  I have Macbook Pro (about 3 years old).  My wife as old iMac (too old for newer OS updates).  We have wifi network.  threee computers use the network, 3 ipads, and our iphones. 
    I went into network settings - clicked on our network -- went to advanced -- then opened TCP/IP tab and changed the Configure IPv4: to Using DHCP with manual address.  I then entered the address I found on my iPad by going to Setting / WI-FI to find our Network. I clicke the i with the circle around it (information) and found the IP address, I entered the IP address into the MacBook Pro IPv4 address, which is in the format of XX.X.X.XX.  However I changed the last number by one digit up.  Clicked apply and it worked.  Again I am a novice, so this may or may not be a good idea, but at least for now, it is working.  DWall71

  • After updating to 4.3.2 wifi fails, anyone else?

    I've updated my iphone 3gs last weekend to fw 4.3.2 and sincethen my wifi isnt able to work anymore.
    Since i live in an area that doesn't support 3G connectivity, it feels like i'm thrown back in time where there was no (fast) mobile internet, really annoying...
    Does anyone else have this problem, and is there an solution?

    Many people have the problem, that after upgrading their iphone to 4.3.2 or 4.3.3. the WiFi is not working. In my setting this was the problem and could be solved:
    The iOS 4.3.2 and 4.3.3 for iphone is not compatible with the firmware 7.5.2 for apple airport extreme and time capsule. If your WiFi router is an apple airport with the newest firmware 7.5.2 an iphone with the iOS 4.3.1 connects without problems but after the firmware undate tu 4.3.2 or 4.3.3 it will not be able to detect and connect to the WiFi network.
    Solution Because the iphone firmware can not be downgraded, the airport firmware has to be downgraded
    1)  Make sure that the settings of your Airport Extreme are in mixed a/b/n mode
    2)  Open Airport Utility
    3)  Select Upload Firmware from the BaseStation menu
    4)  If you current version is 7.5.2, click Upload Firmware
    5)  Select 7.5.1 from the pop up menu
    6)  Restore Firmware
    Now the WiFi network is detected and connected as before upgrading the iphone to 4.3.3.

  • After updating my wife's iPad to iOS6 the ipad will not connect to wifi on certain wireless routers. What can we do? Also, same for iPad mini with same router. But iPhone that has iOS5 has no problem connecting.

    Need help. Before updating to latest software iOS6 the iPad had no issues connecting on our home router. After updating the iPad will not work. We have a mini iPad with same issue. But I have a iPhone 4S that I chose not to update to iOS6, still has iOS5. It connects no problem to router. Our computers have no issues connecting to router either. There is a software issue with iOS6.0.1 that will not allow certain routers to communicate. What can I do?  Also, the mini iPad stated a newer version of software is out, version 6.0.2 which is supposed to correct the wifi problems. It has helped but still haven't connectivity issues. However, the iPad states software is up-to-date so we cannot update to 6.0.2 even through connecting to computer on iTunes. How can that be?

    Try going to settings, reset , reset network settings.

  • Iphone 4s cannot auto connect to home wifi after updating to ios 6.1.2

    My iphone 4s will not auto connect to my home wifi after updating to IOS 6.1.2.  I can manually connect to my phone to wifi but it will get disconnect if I'mnot using the phone. Any way to reslove?

    Once the phone goes into sleep mode, it is supposed to auto disconnect from wifi to save battery. Are you saying that once you wake the phone up it will not auto connect at that time?
    Suggest you try and forget the network, then go in and try the reset network settings again and then try to rediscover the network and connect again. Have you tried to do a reset of the phone, but holding the sleep/wake and home buttons together until you see the Apple logo and then release?
