# some solutions | |
1.- Disconnect external SSD drives, USBs, _ANY_ stuff that requires power | |
2.- Turn ip6 off | |
Check what are the services: | |
networksetup -listnetworkserviceorder | |
Then run: | |
networksetup -setv6off Wi-Fi | |
3.- Activity Monitor - search DNS, kill processes | |
(NOTE: THIS FIX SEEMS TO BE TEMPORARY, THE IP6 thing works better IMO) | |

still not working? | |
4.- From the OS X Finder, hit Command+Shift+G and enter the following path: | |
/Library/Preferences/SystemConfiguration/ | |
5.- Within this folder locate and select the following files: | |
com.apple.airport.preferences.plist | |
com.apple.network.identification.plist | |
com.apple.wifi.message-tracer.plist | |
NetworkInterfaces.plist | |
preferences.plist | |
6.-Move all of these files into a folder on your Desktop called ‘wifi backups’ or something similar – we’re backing these up just in case you break something but if you regularly backup your Mac you can just delete the files instead since you could restore from Time Machine if need be | |
5.-Reboot the Mac | |
6.-Turn ON WI-Fi from the wireless network menu again | |
# Create a New Wi-Fi Network Location with Custom DNS | |

3.- run to change to magic number 1453 | |
networksetup -setMTU en0 1453 |
