My MacBook sometimes
has trouble connecting to
my home Wi-Fi. Sometimes
it takes several attempts.
Paul Thorpe
The quickest fix that we have found
for solving Wi-Fi connection problems
is to instruct your MacBook to forget
the connection and then connect
afresh. Go to System Preferences>
Network and then click on the
‘Advanced’ button. Highlight your
network, click the ‘–’ button, then
click on the Wi-Fi icon and reconnect
to your home network.
