Forgetting a Wi-Fi network on a Mac is a simple process that can be done in just a few steps. Whether you want to stop connecting to a specific network or just clear out your list of saved networks, this guide will show you how to do it.
To forget a network on a Mac, follow these steps:
1. Open the System Preferences by clicking on the Apple logo in the top left corner of your screen and selecting “System Preferences” from the dropdown menu.
2. In the System Preferences window, click on the “Network” icon.
3. In the Network window, select Wi-Fi from the list of available network connections on the left side of the window.
4. Click on the “Advanced” button in the lower right corner of the window.
5. In the Wi-Fi window, you will see a list of all the networks your Mac has connected to in the past. Select the network you want to forget from the list.
6. Once you have selected the network, click on the “-” button at the bottom of the list to remove it.
7. A confirmation message will appear asking if you are sure you want to forget the network. Click on “Remove” to confirm.
8. The network will now be removed from your list of saved networks, and your Mac will no longer automatically connect to it when it is in range.
By following these simple steps, you can easily forget a network on your Mac and prevent it from connecting in the future. This can be useful if you are no longer using a specific network or if you want to clear out your list of saved networks. Remember that you can always rejoin a network later by selecting it from the list of available networks and entering the password.
