    In my experience this usually indicates that your router is on a noisy channel. Is it set to Auto? Have you tried setting the channel yourself to one of the more obscure ones? Whenever I've done that in the past I tend to have a full stable signal on all my devices afterwards.

    That's an interesting comment, because generally its when I am using my works wifi which will have much more draw than mine at home.

    Thank you

    On a side note, my wifi strength is stronger. I get full strength now when I would only get 3/4 strength wifi signal at the exact same place in my house.

    I'm using the same brightness level, and all background apps are closed, so I'm pretty sure the new os version is responsible for that
    That put me over the top .I was going to sit this update out since it's been written it's a track fix only but this is the second time I've read a wifi improvement. Thank you
