Anyone get a your wifi is highly unstable message

What have I noticed? I've noticed that my WIFI is very sketchy, my BT is VERY slow to connect to anything, my battery is draining (most likely to the WIFI constantly connecting) and Verizon (who has known about these issues for some time) still has no fix from Samsung. Yea!
YES, and its driving me nuts. I get this message at home, at Dr's office, at relatives homes... everywhere I had perfectly fine Wifi prior to 4.3.
A couple weeks after the update, I could no longer tolerate the lag, the unresponsiveness, all the issue that have been mentioned, and did a factory reset. My Note II performs much better EXCEPT for this nagging "unstable wifi" message. And its not just a message, there is something definitely wrong. It will randomly switch from wifi to 4g, and many times will have BOTH wifi and 4g icons, showing it moving data on both networks at the same time.
I have deleted the wifi settings and started over again (the factory reset obviously did that also) to no avail. And I also tried the different settings for automatically swithing networks.
I use a nightstand dock, and will hear/see it randomly changing networks during the night (30 ft from wifi router).
Along with wifi, I also notice a decreased performance in bluetooth.
I use Bluetooth streaming in my car stereo ( Kenwood DPX500). I used to be able to keep my Note in my pocket and it would always sync. Now I have to place it in the cup holder near the stereo. (I know, its no big deal, but its an example that something changed).
I wonder if they (whoever they might be), for the sake of better battery performance, lowered the power output to these wifi and bluetooth radios. (Yep, I'm an old-school Ham)

Well for starters you have GPS on. That's a big battery hog. And I see that the screen is on a lot.
