My 2021 M1 Pro MacBook Pro drops wifi periodically, it does this on all networks I’ve tried, including at the Apple Store. Sometimes it automatically reconnects, sometimes it doesn’t.
Turning off bluetooth significantly reduces the frequency of the problem but doesn’t eradicate it. Obviously I’d like a solution where I can have bluetooth on.
How can I diagnose this further?
Here's some other misc notes:
- I've tried on every macOS apart from 12.4, I'm going to try that now
- When wifi and bluetooth are both on, they will both drop at the same time. My headphones will lose audio for a second and I see the wifi reconnecting
- A genius ran a hardware test which said everything was fine
- iPad and multiple iPhones all fine on my home network
- M1 MacBook Air is fine on my home network
- Tried soft and hard reinstalls of macOS
- Renewed DHCP lease
- Created a new network location
- When plugged into wired ethernet the wifi still drops
- I’ve tried turning off 2.4g on my home wifi router
I've run the wireless diagnostics tool. It often detects the drop and generates an output file. The Apple Genius said this would "be something for engineering". I'm not sure if there's anything I can do with this file?
