When the Wi-Fi on your Mac isn\u2019t working, it can be VERY frustrating. If you\u2019re having issues, let\u2019s look at some steps to resolve \u2018em. Take these steps one at a time. If the first one doesn\u2019t work, move on to the next.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Step one:<\/strong> Make sure you\u2019re running the latest version of macOS.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Step two:<\/strong> Restart an app that can\u2019t connect to Wi-Fi. For example, if it\u2019s Safari, quit and relaunch the web browser.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Step three:<\/strong> Restart your Mac. In fact, anytime you\u2019re having problems with your Mac, this is a good step to take. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Step four:<\/strong> Restart your router. Unplug it from its power source, wait at least 15 seconds, then restart it. It may take a few minutes for it to reboot and reconnect to your Wi-Fi network.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Step five:<\/strong> Restart your Wi-Fi. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Step six: <\/strong>Click the Wi-Fi logo at the top right of your Mac screen.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Wi-Fi

Step seven:<\/strong> Move the slider from blue to gray. Wait about 15 seconds, then move the slide from gray to blue.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Step eight: <\/strong>Disconnect and reconnect Bluetooth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Go to the Control Center in the top right of your Mac\u2019s screen and click on the Bluetooth icon.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Or, if you have a Bluetooth icon in your menu bar, click that icon to bring up Bluetooth options.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Bluetooth

Move the Bluetooth slider from blue to gray to toggle Bluetooth off.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Wait a couple of seconds, then move the slider from grey to blue.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Step nine:<\/strong> Disable and re-enable your Wi-Fi network.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Click the Control Center icon in your Menu Bar and click the Wi-Fi icon highlighted blue. Or, click the standalone Wi-Fi icon in your Menu Bar and click the Wi-Fi icon highlighted blue next to the name of your Wi-Fi network. Whichever you perform, the icon will change from blue to gray, indicating that your Mac has been disconnected from your Wi-Fi network.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Wait a few seconds, then click on the Wi-Fi icon to connect to your network again.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If none of these options work, you\u2019ll likely need to contact your Internet provider.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
