    Macbook Pro (Retina 15" late '13) running OS X 10.11.3 This happens only on my laptop, only on wifi, across various wifi networks. My laptop never loses connection to the router, but access to the internet will randomly stop. If I turn the wi-fi off and the on again, I have internet access...

    Do you leave "cellular data" on 24/7?

    Even when you are connected to WiFi, and does it run out easier this way? I get 3gb a month on my plan and was wondering if I could make it last by having it switched on constantly. Edit. Does just simply leaving it on 24/7 drain the data? Thanks,
