At this stage after 6 days had 8 freezes and it can't be due to internet speed as we have 50meg.Love the tech just feel there are lots of things need ironed out.I don't expect to pay 330 pounds for tech with a glitchy OS I wouldn't accept it from a phone laptop or tablet.Again I like the tech but these issues need remedied quickly.
Agreed. Mine just freezes in messages and notifications.

You can use a wired Ethernet connection by using a USB LAN adapter.
i'd definitely suggest this as Ethernet dropouts are rare, good way to isolate between the connection and router too.

like blooper said it could be many things other than the update itself such as the overall network setup/settings/connection.
probe to see if there are many other wireless networks in the vicinity; changing the wireless 2.4ghz channel to 8 on my router ended up with a stable network connection and were more reliable due to potential wireless interference.
according to the tech specs: http://www.nintendo....res/tech-specs/
wii u is compatible with IEEE 802.11b/g/n range, pretty much most routers but if you are using an older type, update the firmware as well

Router is a new bthome hub 3 supporting bgn WiFi.I don't think its the update s I think its the hardware/software/firmware.Like the console dislike the bugs.To be honest I expect better stability from a 2012 consumer electronics product.Really hope its the firmware
i'd say most likely too. i havent had intermittent freezing at all on my xbox360 but just experienced a couple about half an hour ago on the Wii U... frustrating
