In addition to some ongoing complaints about GPUs in MacBook Pro computers, Apple is now facing a multitude of reports involving crippled Wi-Fi connections after the upgrade to Yosemite, the newest version of the company’s desktop OS.

Much like iOS 8, the initial release of OS X 10.10 packed a number of bugs that required immediate attention. Chief among those was a problem with Wi-Fi connectivity. The Cupertino company has deployed one maintenance update since, addressing several issues. However, the 10.10.1 update failed to fix the widely reported wireless problems.

We’ve been tracking a thread on Apple Support Communities where users continue to discuss the same WiFi woes reported since mid-October. The topic has reached almost half a million views and spans 111 pages at the time of this writing. Some users have become so desperate that they’ve begun acquiring new hardware in hopes of addressing the problem.

User erluk9 writes, “It's utterly insane to me that people are switching out hardware thinking that is the issue. The router you had previously that was working just fine with Mavericks is STILL working just fine. The method of connecting to it has changed (Yosemite). You should not have to go through these hoops because Apple screwed the pooch with this OS.”

In all fairness, all signs point to Yosemite being at fault here. Apple is known to be testing OS X 10.10.2 focusing on Wi-Fi, Mail, and VoiceOver. There’s no word on when this update will hit the wires.
