[QUOTE="JonsMac, post: 1152911, member: 182161"] [b]wifi slow[/b] I'm having the same issue. I can't watch any youtube videos or even download the software updates. it says it'll take like one day to finish. I did the speedtest thing and only have about to 2 megabites or something. I'm not vary computer savy so I don't really know what any of that means. I had my cousin help me. Most web pages even takes a while to DL. I'm used my Compaq labtop which is basically dead but it can open pages faster so I know the connection is good. I called tech support and he helped me a little bit and just told me to go to a wifi hot spot and see if it's any faster. I was able to watch youtube a little faster but still unable to DL the software update. Any help would be greatly appreciated. I'm also new to Mac so navigating is kinda hard.
