#MY MAC RUNS SLOW ON NETWORK MAC OS X#

Not every solution works, but here are 3 simple fixes that completely solved the issue for me (Using Windows Server 2012 & 2012R2 with Mac OS X 10.9 & 10.10). What used to take 10+ mins to copy now only take a few seconds. It's a common complaint that in recent versions of Mac OS 10.x, browsing Windows-hosted SMB shares is incredibly slow. One big benefit is that the gig connection between my computers and my Synology NAS means super fast file transfers. (I've done this in the bedroom for the Kindle) When I do a scan of my Wi-Fi, I have about 20 different networks all fighting for space (I live in a condo)Д®ven if you want to 'float around' with your MBP and not be tethered to a cable, you can still run the cable and hook up an inexpensive router or WAP, turn down the transmission power of the antennas and ensure a good WiFi network in your room only. I have a Surface Pro 3 and a iMac that have CAT5e connections on my desk and I have zero connection issues. I personally have done the latter because I had the exact same problem as you are experiencing. This will give you a nice, solid gigabit connection.

Put in some plenum rated CAT5e and terminate properly. For the price of a high quality router, you can run a CAT5e drop between the two rooms with the cable in the wall. You said you are only two rooms away.5GHz should be able to get to you with no problem. The 5GHz frequency will be relatively quiet (for now), but has more difficulty going through walls. The upside is that the 2.4GHz frequency will easily go through walls, but it will be very crowded. This will give you many, many, more channels to work with. Get a dual band (or even tri-band) router.Manually setting your channel today will fix the problem now, but tomorrow when the other wireless routers with their 'Auto Channel Setting' suddenly take over the one you have set up, you are back to square one.

As more and more people buy wireless routers, range extenders, and additional access points to solve their connection issues, you are going going to run out of channels. The fix provided by Buscar is a good one, but it's only temporary.Д¬hannel crowding is a problem that will only become worse, not better.
