Thanks for that Ronni. Followed your instructions. Now I can report
that the loss of WiFi on sleep is far less but not gone. This is the
found list:
com.apple.accounts.exists.plist TODAY
com.apple.airport.preferences.plist TODAY
com.apple.AutoWake.plist APR 12
com.apple.Boot.plist SEP 14
com.apple.captive.probe.plist NOV 14
com.apple.eapolclient.plist APR 14
com.apple.network.eapolclient.configuration.plist
com.apple.network.identification.plist
com.apple.PowerManagement.plist
com.apple.smb.server.plist
com.apple.wifi.message-tracer.plist
NetworkInterfaces.plist

Hi again Bill,
I just went through my Client files again Re: Wi-Fi issues and step 2
& 3 - you might find these files in
/Library/Preferences/SystemConfiguration/
--
2. From the OS X Finder, hit Command+Shift+G and enter the following path:
*/Library/Preferences/SystemConfiguration/*
3. Within this folder locate and select the following files:
*com.apple.airport.preferences.plist*
*com.apple.eapolclient.plist*
*com.apple.IPConfiguration.control.plist*
*com.apple.nat.plist*
*com.apple.network.eapolclient.configuration.plist*
*com.apple.wifi.message-tracer.plist*
*NetworkInterfaces.plist*
*preferences.plist*
Then follow Steps 4 - 5 & 6 below.
Cheers,

Hi Bill,
What have you tried to rectify the Wi-Fi issue?
I have not experienced any Wi-Fi issues after upgrading to
Yosemite. Ive had a few clients that did experience Wi-Fi issues
after doing an In-Place Upgrade (not a Clean Installation). I was
able to fix their Wi-Fi problems with some fairly simple troubleshooting.
Manually trashing the Network plist files should be your first line
of troubleshooting.
This is one of those tricks that consistently resolves even the most
stubborn wireless problems on Macs of nearly any OS X version.
This is particularly effective for Macs who updated to Yosemite that
may have a corrupt or dysfunctional preference file mucking things up.
*Remove Network Configuration & Preference Files*
*1. *Turn Off Wi-Fi from the Wireless menu item
*2.* From the OS X Finder, hit Command+Shift+G and enter the
following path:
*/Library/Preferences/SystemConfiguration/*
*
*
*3.* Within this folder locate and select the following files:
*com.apple.airport.preferences.plist *
*com.apple.network.identification.plist *
*com.apple.wifi.message-tracer.plist
NetworkInterfaces.plist
preferences.plist*
*4.* Move all of these files into a folder on your Desktop called
wifi backups or something similar were backing these up just in
case you break something but if you regularly backup your Mac you can
just delete the files instead since you could restore from Time
Machine if need be.
*5.* Reboot the Mac
*6. *Turn ON WI-Fi from the wireless network menu again
This forces OS X to recreate all network configuration files. This
alone may resolve your problems, but if youre continuing to have
trouble there are other steps you can do to resolve wireless problems.
Post back with details what you have tried before I suggest any other
steps to take.
Cheers,
Ronni

Wamugers,
Yosemite 10.10.1 had the habit of closing down WiFi after "sleep".
10.10.2 was said to fix that. For me it has not. It doesn't
happen as often but still there!
