[QUOTE="Ember1205, post: 1728898, member: 374272"] You need to be sure that the list of WiFi networks is in the correct order, too. Your most preferred network at the top. I have two different networks in my house - one is 2.4Ghz and the other is 5GHz. I have to list the 2.4GHz network higher in the list to be sure that my Mac will use the correct network. Otherwise, it will try to connect to the 5GHz network even when I'm not close enough and the 2.4GHz network has a stronger signal. I don't remove the 5GHz from the list because I also access these networks from my mobile devices and all of the networks are synced among the devices. [/QUOTE]
