Wi-Fi hardware constraints the usage hence creating performance issues.The Cupertino is yet to fix the issues completely. We just told you about how to fix such issues on iOS 8 via jailbreak tweak. But what about OS X Yosemite Wi-Fi issues? Can we fix them? There is no app or tweak available to provide with the toggle. So what to do?
Well, you can change the settings manually by typing simple terminal commands. You can either enable or disable the AWDL as per your needs. Want to have no Wi-Fi issue, just disable it.

sudo ifconfig awdl0 down

sudo ifconfig awdl0 up
