Hi all,
I'm having an absolute nightmare with the internet on my MacBook Air (mid-2012). The problem is mainly with my home WiFi, although has happened intermittently with other WiFi networks in other locations. Regardless of which browser I use, the internet runs ridiculously slowly, taking a very long time to load pages or not loading them at all. And I can't even load the App Store or download any updates.
My home WiFi is Sky Fibre. I have numerous other devices including an iPad and a work laptop (Windows) that connect to this WiFi network and have no issue whatsoever with the internet speeds on any of these.
I tried a speed test using my MacBook, and the download speed came back at 0.06mps... doing the same test on my other devices gets the right speed. I've also tried tethering my laptop to my phone internet and this appears to get decent internet speeds without issue.
I've tried Wireless Diagnostics and have a report, but sadly I'm not tech savvy enough to know what that report is actually telling me! I've also tried erasing my HD and resetting the MacBook back to the factory OS (Mountain Lion), this still didn't work. I've now restored it back to Sierra.
Does anyone have any suggestions please?
