M2 MacBook Pro and Wifi issues

[TyShawn]

Has anyone else seen any issues with Safari on the newer Macs? I came from n Intel Mac with the latest Safari build and never had any issues with browsing. Now with my new MBP pages are timing out all the time or takes minutes to load.

try another browser... just to see what happens. no issues here with safari on either of my new macs, and doesn't seem to be a topic of discussion on the forum.

have you tried resetting your modem? or perhaps changing your DNS settings...

Recently bought an M2 MBP to replace my MBA and Safari seems the same.

So to give a bit more detail on this issue.

Two Networks:
Network 1
Meraki MR42 Dual band with single SSID over 2.4/5Ghz
Meraki MS 120 8p switch
Meraki MX67

Network 2
Grandstream 7664 Wifi 6 dual band with single SSID over 2.4/5Ghz
Cisco Cat3850
Sophos XG firewall

2013 Macbook Pro = No issues
2015 Macbook Pro = No issues
M1 Macbook Air = No issues
M2 Macbook Pro = Safari / MS Edge / Mail / ping drops

So I did some searching in the forums and people with dual-band networks are seeing issues with the M2 chipset. Some people are having luck with the following commands
Disable: sudo ifconfig awdl0 down

Enable: sudo ifconfig awdl0 up
But for me, that didn't help.
