If I DoS my router, this evens out to around 31ms.Īlso, as a point of reference, I had my wife's 2011 13" MacBook Air and an old Dell Latitude laptop next to me for almost all these tests-they never showed any drop in performance (throughput, latency, or connectivity)-not once. This graph shows the latency for a 1 second ping to -and this was one of the best runs-while connected to an 802.11g network with Bluetooth enabled. This graph shows signal strength over time, with Bluetooth enabled (but not paired with anything), on a 2.4 Ghz 802.11g network. These two graphics below show some of the investigation I've done (using ping and Apple's Wireless Diagnostics tool: I've done literally hundreds of tests to diagnose, reproduce, and (in some situations) solve these problems, and I'll recount some of these things here, for the benefit of the many others having these issues, and possibly for an Apple engineer tasked with fixing the issues.

Unstable throughput: When using a bandwidth-measuring tool like, bandwidth on a very stable connection can vary between 5-40 Mbps (while another Mac or PC sitting right next to the Air reliably gets 40 Mbps).It's almost worse than being connected to a 56kbps dial-up modem! Dropped packets: sometimes, when loading a web page, part of the page will load, then the connection seemingly drops for 5-30 seconds, then finally, the rest of the page loads.This makes things like connecting to a remote server (either with SSH or via VNC or RDC) a painful experience, and causes some applications (like streaming video or VPN connections) to drop and reload, also contributing to the pain. Terrible latency: while sitting in one location, the Air might have ping times ranging from 30-4000ms, with many dropped packets.Here are some of the symptoms I and others have encountered: Judging by the number of individuals who have posted to this thread on Apple's Support Communities forum, among many other similar threads, I'm not the only MacBook Air owner suffering from WiFi issues like high latency, slow throughput, connection dropouts, and other random problems. I've taken the MacBook to the Genius Bar twice, and have attempted dozens of fixes.

Please see WiFried: iOS 8 WiFi Issueįor the past few months, I've been battling my 2013 11" MacBook Air's WiFi problems.

Update 2 (11/25/14): If you're having trouble with iOS 8 and/or Yosemite, it could be related to AirDrop services over WiFi.

Update (3/4/14): Mac OS X 10.9.2 seems to fix at least the latency issue-and possibly dropped connections as well, at least for most users I've spoken with.
