My wife fixed the Lion Internet connectivity Problem!!

This story kills me. I upgraded to lion on our two MBP. Mine worked great. My wife had the problem where, upon waking, the MBP was still connected to the wifi (airport express) BUT she had no connectivity to the internet.
I researched the heck out of this and tried everything.
I got on Apple care and we tried another 30min worth of stuff. Eventually they said bring it to a genius bar.   I almost thought I had it when I reset everything to factory default on the airport. It worked a few times but then went back to the same problem.
Last night my wife popped out a cd in here machine.   She asked if I had put it there. I had about a week ago.   Not long after that he MBP problem went away.   Well there is no way a CD in the laptop is going to affect internet connectivity.....so I assumed that my airport reset finally did the trick.
But.... this AM I noticed in the Apple support area that someone else noticed that when they pulled a cd out.....things worked.
This is ridiculous....
So I put the cd back in here computer....the problem is back!!... pulled it out....problem gone!
Went to my computer which never had a problem....put CD in....now I have a problem.....pulled it out....no problem (note that you do have to cycle the wireless one time only after you have the problem.... after that sleep...wake....restart....you name it it worked.   The CD is a blank CD by the way.
So its crazy but my wife, who had problems with my tv remote,   fixed the problem!!

Report this issue to Apple's engineering by sending a bug report via its Bug Reporter system. To do this, register as an Apple Developer—it's free and available for all Mac users and gets you a look at some development software. Since you already have an Apple username/ID, use that. Once a member, go to Apple BugReporter and file your bug report. You'll get a response and a follow-up number; thus, starting a dialog with engineering, hopefully getting them to put the issue at the top of their bug fix list.

How I fixed my Lion Internet Connectivity Problem

I know that there is a 25+ page trail of questions on this. I think I looked at every one but nothing worked. I called apple care. I got help fast. We tried about 30 min worth of stuff. They finally said bring it to a genius bar.   I did not want to go there. So I kept playing with it. But first my problem:
I have 2 iphones, an ipad, and 2 macbook pros connected to an airport express.   All working very happily together. Then I upgraded to lion on the two MBP's. One of them continues to work. The other, while it seems to connect to the airport will not connect to the internet on any browser or email software after it wakes from a sleep. Cycling the wifi on the MBP fixes it till it goes to sleep.
So I was beating my brains over this.   Then I thought...hey.... I can see my nieghbors wifi on a linksys router. It works....I am on....go to sleep...wake...still works. Hmmmmmm.
So it dawned on me that the problem was something stored in the airport.   I did a factor reset. Pull the power, depress the reset button, put the power back on, release the reset after 6 secs.   I then used my keychain utility, on the MBP, to eliminate any previous passwords for the router (not sure if that was needed).   I used airport utility to reconfigure the airport. I used all my old names and passwords so I did not have to change the other devices.
It WORKED!!!!
I am not sure if this will work with other wireless routers but it might.

I spoke too soon...problem returned after closing laptop for a while.

Hi Bob
Just a thought for you. It will be interesting to see if it works. I have an MBP which upgraded fine. My iMac 27 initially showed the wake from sleep problem. Both go through the same router so that should not be the problem - logically. All I have done with the iMac was to repair permissions - probably three times and to re-start after. The iMac is now fine - apart from a couple of other unrelated problems, which again, did not appear with the MBP.
Personally, if I have to start doing things in Terminal it is not my problem - I spent too long with DOS and Edlin to go back to that!
Cheers

When is Apple going to fix Yosemite's internet connection problem

Nobody here knows any more than you do about what Apple is going to do. If you want help from other end users with your problem, you'll have to describe it in more detail.

Omni 10 mostly internet connection problem, also difficulties responding generally

Dear all,
For two weeks now i am proud owner of an omni 10 tablet. However, i already encountered some problems like the loss of the audio System, which was luckily restored with the help of the hp support via telephone.
Unfortunately, my tablet is not properly connecting to the internet since yesterday. It also has problems opening PDF files with 'adobe read', deleting or newly creating appointments in the challenger app and foremost it sometimes does not open the settings section depite repeatedly tapping on its button..
Most important currently is the internet connection problem. Is connects but says at the same time that the connection is limited. Additionally, it does not offer any solutions to this. That happend with three differend routers so far..
I hope you can help me
Greetings

Internet connectivity problems. Conflicting IP address?

For the last few months I have been experiencing significant internet connection problems on my mac mini. Although at times my connection is ok, the majority of the time I'm suffering from what would best be described as an "intermittent" internet connection. It seems that my internet connection is constantly cutting out for short periods of time before re-establishing itself.
I'm connected to the internet via a wireless network (netgear router). There are also two windows machines (one laptop and one desktop) and a PS3 connected on the same network (also occasionally there is a macbook connected to the network too).
I've been with the same ISP for over a year now and previously had always experienced a good connection, also all the other devices connected on this network seem to have fine connectivity so I doubt there is any problem with my service provider.
It could be a coincidence but the emergence of the problem seems to have conincided with my flatmates purchase of a laptop. When my flatmate first connected his laptop to the internet I received a message on my mac mini stating there was an IP address conflict, although I have not had that message again and I seem to suffer from bad connectivity at all times, not just when my flatmates laptop is turned on! Could these to issues be related?
I'd be very grateful for any advice on how to resolve this issue as it's getting to be a very significant problem, thanks in advance for any replies...

Also try using the open dns servers instead or your ISP's. System Preferences>Network. Advanced>DNS. Click on + and add the following: 208.67.222.222 and 208.67.220.220. Hit Ok,then Apply.

OSX Mavericks having internet connection problems.

Just updated to OSX Mavericks on my early 2011 MacBook Pro, and it's having internet connection problems. I'm using wi-fi, and so far only Firefox and Mail will connect. All other programs (such as iTunes and App Store) won't establish a connection. This is a problem that only started after I installed Mavericks. What can I do to fix this? Thanks in advance.

App Store / iTunes Store relies on Safari settings if you can't access secure sites from Safari then they won't work... Reset Safari and make sure Block Cookies Setting is not set to Always. You can also try to create a new user and see if it works there to help isolate the issue.

Internet connection problems with OSX 10.10.3

Does anyone else have very bad Internet connection problems after downloading OSX 10.101.3? Does anyone have a solution? P.S. What do you think of PHOTOS, after Aperture?

1, No problems here with internet on 10.10.3
2, No solution
3, I think that Photos is a toy. Apple has basically neutered both Aperture and iPhotos with their efforts to make their desktop solution match the iOS solution.
I am currently looking for a non-Apple solution for my photographic needs since Photos in no way shape or form is able to fill my needs.

Just one month before i bought iphone 5... but the iphone has the internet connectivity problem... while a iphone 4s is cathcing 3G tower, whereas iphone 5 is catching 2G network only.... I've tried so many things to get recovered, but alas

Just one month before i bought iphone 5... but the iphone has the internet connectivity problem... while a iphone 4s is cathcing 3G tower, whereas iphone 5 is catching 2G network only.... I've tried so many things to get recovered, but alas, nothing is workable- such as- restaring the iphone, reseting the networks etc... Please help me out from this problem..

to be clear, my phone works fine when not in motion in a vehicle. If I pull over and come to a complete stop, remaining in the car, my phone works.
And while the phone is not working when I'm in motion, an internet search or a text message will go through, but I can not use Siri or any voice assistance when doing the text message or internet search. The microphone is greyed out.
So this is a unique issue, which appears to be the iPhone and not Verizon.

Persistent internet connection problems.

Every 8 months I get a spate of internet connection problems that last for a few months. (Meaning I get relief for two months at a time, and bad service for two months). When the previous bout of internet connection issues happened I was fortunate enough to get a good technician who showed me how to reset the connection at the fios box at the entrance to my home, by unplugging the backup battery, unplugging the connection box and then reconnecting the battery and plugging back in the connection box. The technician had remarked that there were problems with the main fios connection system to the townhouses, and somehow that got fixed.
This time I have not had as much luck. The technicians on duty have had me reset the cable router (which isn't the problem) and even replace the cable router (also not the problem). Fortunately I have remembered the previous technician's solution and am doing that every three days, without contacting technical support since they have proven useless at this time, only continuing to have me get new routers that do not even connect without the previous steps.
How do I get Verizion to bother to listen to me? At this time I am really wishing Cox was in my neighborhood, since I was able to go at least eight months straight without problems from them.
I am hoping that this causes someone to check on this problem. You had a good technician on technical support once, but not now.
By the way - this has been going on for over two years.

Since we haven't heard back from you or have received a form submission as requested in your private support case, it appears assistance is no longer required. If you need any future help with your Verizon service, please make a post here on the forums so we can assist.
