WiFried completely solved all my WiFi slowdown and drops issues in 8.1. I can't say how relieved I was for it and the performance improvement it provides. If I do bother to upgrade to 8.1.1 or later 8.2, I'd like to know if it's being updated or if it already works on 8.1.1.

You shouldn't need it on 8.1.1. I stopped having the issue after 8.1.1 but there are some that still claim to have the issue and use it. I'd test seeing if you still have the drain before installing it on 8.1.1. Could end up being another useless tweak.
 
Thanks, but I'd still install it. According to the author:

"I’ve confirmed this severe WiFi degradation issue still occurs on iOS 8.1.1 and OSX 10.10.1. This is not fixed."
