Hi,

I've been having serious problems with intermittent wifi on my mac air for months now. The main issue seems to be with all VOIP apps which is particularly problematic during covid. It's impossible to hold a conversation for more than 30seconds before the connection drops.

I've contacted Apple many times about this problems, have wiped and reinstalled everything on the mac and made sure all updates were done. After all of this I am still having the issue with the mac. My partners PC had the issue a few months back but it was quickly fixed so the mac air is the only device having this problem now. 

Has anyone else experienced similar problems and can help troubleshoot this?

thanks!

Try a wired connection instead

I use a MBAir too and have no issues at all.

But then, I dont use the Hub for my wifi connections - I have my own good quality wireless equipment and use VM Hubs in modem only mode.

Consider doing that yourself, or do as Gary suggests and connect it by ethernet cable. Yes I know the Airs dont have ethernet ports and so I connect mine (occasionally) using a USB-RJ45 "adapter" - these are cheap from the usual online places
