MacBook Pro struggles to maintain Wi-Fi after short usage periods.
MacBook Pro struggles to maintain Wi-Fi after short usage periods.
Based on the system's age, it seems the Wi-Fi module could be failing. Since they're inexpensive and simple to swap, it might be worth replacing it. Just ensure you use an Apple-compatible chip for compatibility.
Thanks for the advice. More testing will help, as far as I can manage. It seems to occur only with the AC router, even though the MacBook communicates with it in "N." My friend has a USB-to-WiFi adapter, which I plan to use to explore what’s possible.
