[QUOTE="Butterback, post: 1522584, member: 305052"] I have a fairly recent macbook pro (osx 10.8.3), and ever since I brought it into my house it has been causing wifi problems. Just by being connected, it cuts the download speed of every computer in the house from around 11 to around 3 mb/s. I've monitored its connection through activity monitor, and there are no abnormal upload or download behaviors. Just by being connected it shuts down the wifi. It doesn't even hog it, it just kills it. Any ideas as to what may be causing it? There is some backup software and while it does cause upload and download spikes the problems persist every second between its backup (a 6 hour interval). [/QUOTE]
