Noticed recently that at times, fairly frequently, that my wifi on my MacBook Pro would cut out. By cut out I mean the signal is still active, by all indications it is still connected but there is no upload/download network activity happening.
The odd thing to me is that simply by clicking the wifi icon in the Menu Bar it is restored (most times), until it happens again. Not sure why this suddenly started happening. I have restarted the modem/router several times, the computer as well & went so far as to forget the connection & re-register it & still it occurs. Now trying to turn off bluetooth to see if that would make a difference though I doubt it since it has been on before this became an issue & since.
Can't upgrade macOS any further unfortunately as Mojave isn't compatible with my MBP.
It is a 5GHz connection if that matters.
Anyone else with similar issues and or a fix?
Thanks.
