I am having some weird issues with wifi connectivity on my 2015 Retina MBP 15". I moved to a new house and the wifi has been pretty poor so far- verizon had to reset our box and stuff because it couldn't hold a connection. It seems to be resolved now, though, and every other device in the house including my iPhone is connecting without issue. My mac, on the other hand, sees the SSID but times out trying to join it. I've tried all of the usual things- restarting the computer, restarting the router, etc. The weirdest part is that it's ONLY our new wifi- I went to a coffee shop and it hopped on just fine, so I know it's not an issue with the wifi chip or anything. I tried removing the network from iCloud keychain, running Mac Diagnostics, everything in the book and I can't seem to figure it out. All of my friends' windows machines and even my other roomatte's mac are working fine on the network.

Have you tried rebooting the network itself? I had to do that on my laptop once(the power went out and when it came back everything but my laptop could connect to it).

http://www.chriswrites.com/how-to-fix-wifi-connection-problems-in-mac-os-x-lion/ These should work using whatever version of macOS you have installed. Does it work properly over Ethernet, just to rule out any issues with your network? Also, try rebooting the router.

Ok....so I have had a similar issue. Turn off the macs wifi and then reset your router. If that still doesn't work then contact your ISP. You could always try removing all the settings related your wifi on the Mac.  Or try a SMC and PRAM reset. 

Have you tried turning it off and on again?
