Network Diagnostics gives me all green, but Safari says no Internet connection

Whenever I awake my computer from sleep, it takes about a full minute or more (haven't timed it yet) before it will recognize my Internet connection. As soon as I open it, it automatically connects to my home network, but if I try to use the Internet in any way, I can't. Safari tells me I have no Internet connection. When I open Network Diagnostics as it suggests, I have all green lights. I can go all the way through Network Diagnostics, finish still with all green lights, and Safari still says no Internet connection. If I give it about a minute, I can reload the page, and everything will be fine…until I close the lid.
Any ideas? This is driving me crazy.
Other potentially helpful information:
I was away for the summer. Before I left, I did not have this problem. While I was away, I upgraded to Lion, but I didn't have this problem on any networks before or after the upgrade until I came back home. As far as I can tell, none of the other notebooks here (all Macs) have this problem. Weird, right? They are all running Snow Leopard or Leopard, though, come to think of it. So perhaps it is a combination of the network and Lion?

I've had that problem before, but when that was the problem, the computer was still trying to connect to the network and I didn't have green lights from Network Diagnostics. In this case, my computer connects instantly, I get all green lights from ND, and I still can't use the Internet for about two minutes. Everything looks fine in the network settings, green light on Wi-Fi, gives me an IP address, etc.
Is there another program besides Network Diagnostics that could tell me exactly where I'm not getting through?

    Did you reset your network connections using Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Connections?
    Did you try to log back into your network using Settings > WiFi > Other Networks and re-entering your network name, security settings, and password?
    Have you tried a general reset of your iPod?

    Hi.. My internet and wifi are working on samsung phone and hp laptop but its not getting connected to iphone ipad, only skype is coming online rest all apps and safari show no internet connection. Got new linksys router WRT160NL , but situation same. Tried reboot, renew lease, forget network, reset network setting. Pls advice

    Have you tried a simple reset of your iPod to see if that helps?  To do this, press and hold both the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons together long enough for the Apple logo to appear.
    Otherwise, have you tried any of the troubleshooting mentioned in this Apple support document?

  • WiFi only works close to router, DNS fail, Signal Bars present but Safari says no Internet, I've deleted and readded through to reset and full reset, I had no problem with 4.3.2 only 4.3.3 both my iPhone4 and my iPad2. I am now beside router - no problem

    Help
    WiFi only works close to router, DNS fail, Signal Bars present but Safari says no Internet, I've deleted and re-added through to reset and full reset, I had no problem with 4.3.2 only 4.3.3 both my iPhone4 and my iPad2. I am now beside router - no problem, but go 20 metres and WiFi becomes unstable. Only way to get either to work is disable WiFi either as a Hot Spot or turn it off and use the 3G connection. This worked with 4.3 & 4.3.2 what has gone wrong? I raised it at the Apple Store in Belfast as a problem but was told that there was no problem with Apple but I must have a faulty router - yeah - that's a lot of faulty routers, my home, my office, my holiday home, Starbucks, my friends house, my son's house. I've tried all the 'fixes'. I think it is a plan to force us to buy Apple Routers

    Two ways out, I added two more Belkin Access Points in my house in Spain so that I'm not more than 10Mtrs away, (Reinforced Concrete & solar glass 2010)
    I bought 3 Apple Airports, 1 x Extreme and 2 x Express (1 as a hard wired AP, 1 as an extender) for my other house (Brick construction 1930's)
    Everthing now works perfectly, as I said 'an apple plot', so either blast them with signal or visit your nearest apple store.
    Early beta iOS5 (iPad) is also much inproved in Beta 3, I have not had any problem with 'Lion'
    Happy hunting!

  • Trying to restore ipod but itunes says no internet connection.

    Trying to restore ipod but itunes says no internet connection. Uninstalled and re-installed itunes but still have same problem. Trying to restore because I uploaded songs from Yahoo music jukebox to ipod but they won't play. They are listed as "other" and I can not access them to delete or play. Tried to delete through music jukebox but now it say " error reading content" so I figure restoring ipod is the only way to fix problem.

    Does this help?

  • My airport express is setup, the light is green but I have no Internet connection

    i have setup my airport express the light is green but I get no wifi

    I have a macbook pro 13'' with MAC OS X. Recently bought and installed airport express when it does not drop the WiFi conncetion it works great. Getting frustrated with the fact that I keep losing my WiFi connection, when this happens I check my iphone and I can access the internet do problem while my Macbook pro cannot? After doing some research on the problem I found out that this is not an uncommon problem specially or those who have upgraded to MAC OS X. From what I understand there is a a bug in the WiFi connection chip! Am going to the Apple store today to see what they have to say. I hope there is a fix for this!

  • Wifi bars on but browser says no internet connection detected

    I am on my school network and although when I log on, I get all bars on the wifi icon blacked in, my browsers all say that there is no internet connection detected. What should I do?

    There my be an Acceptable Use Policy that you have to accept before using the network. Turn off your wifi, then turn it back on and reconnect. Then open your default web browser, to see if anything pops up.

  • S/W update 2.2.1 - safari says no internet connection.

    After I updated to 2.2.1 safari keeps saying it isn't connected to the Internet. Even when I have full 3g signal. To solve the issue I have to turn off the phone. Any one have any ideas.

    Any idea about error (9)??
    Try the general tips in this article: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1275
    Make sure the iPhone is directly connected to a high speed USB port on the Mac using the cable that came with it.
    If the issue persists, create a thread with detailed information about your Macs configuration and. By creating another thread each issue will get the attention it deserves.

  • Network Diagnostics gives green lights, but machine still won't connect

    I am using a AE(N) base station and wireless network, and as far as I know, no settings have changed. My mac mini has an IP address can send and receive mail, but neither Firefox nor Safari can load any webpages and apps that try to connect like software update don't recognize a working connection. Network Diagnostics give me green lights all the way through "Server" and multiple other machines still work on the same network. I have removed the network login info from the mac mini and erased the mini's connection access from the base station and started over. Mini has no change, and the other machines are still fine. I tried creating a guest network and connecting to that, but it didn't help. I'm running out of ideas to trouble-shoot the problem. Any advice is appreciated.

    In the Network panel of System Preferences, if you click on the "Advanced" button for your AirPort connection, then on the "DNS" tab, what do you see for "DNS Servers"? How does that computer with the same settings for the computers that are working?
    What do you mean by the statement that "I have removed the network login info from the mac mini and erased the mini's connection access from the base station"?

    If Join was on then your home wi-fi must be set to Non-Broadcast.  If you did not set this up (maybe your provider did) then you will need to find the Network Name they used, and any password they used.  The SSID is Security Set ID and to see more try http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SSID .  Basically it is the name used to identify your router/network.  A lot of times the installer will leave it set as LinkSys, or Broadcom or whatever the manufacturer set it as for default.  Your best bet is to get whoever installed it to walk you through how they set it up, giving you id's and passwords so you can get in.  HOWEVER, if you are not comfortable with this (if you set security wrong, etc.) you would be well ahead of the game to hire a local computer tech (networking) to get this working for you.  You can also contact the vendor of your router and get help (if it is still in warranty), or at least get copies of the manuals as pdf files.  Sorry I can't give you more help, I hope this gives you an idea where to go from here to find more.

  • Airport Express all green, but no internet connection

    Hey guys. I'm using an Airport Express thru an ethernet cable at work. I'm attempting to create my own wireless network thru the LAN. I set up my AE in accordance with the Airport Utility instructions & everything is reading green. The AE, Airport Utility, & my wifi bar are all reading good, but I have no internet connection. What am I doing wrong? I reset the AE before I set it up.

    Do I need authorization from an admin?
    It is common practice for network administrators to require that each device that connects to the network be authorized......to prevent unauthorized access.
    Whether your admin requires this, I cannot say.....but it would be one explanation for the lack of an Internet connection.
    In a case like this, your computer.......which has been authorized.....might be able to connect to the network using an Ethernet cable....but a device like the AirPort Express....which has not been authorized.....would not be able to connect using the same Ethernet cable.

  • My Ipad 'Systems' shows my WiFi connection is working and all my Apps connect and interact ok but Safari says 'No Response from the Server' the same on my Mail. The WiFi works perfectly on everything else in the house. Any ideas ?

    My Ipad 'Systems' shows my WiFi connection is working and all my Apps connect and interact ok but Safari says 'No Response from the Server' the same on my Mail. The WiFi works perfectly on everything else in the house. Any ideas ?

    it was not just email it was all internet via safari but all apps including the bank account app. the laptop and pc access the same email servers which work perfectly so it is difficult to blame the servers.
    by the way it has now started to work properly at lasst after a whole day of trying to resolve this year.

  • A website I frequently visit will no longer come up. Safaris says that my connection has been lost but it hasn't. I even get emails from the website but I still can't get on it. Why would it all of a sudden do this?

    The reason, I included the annotation that I'd upgraded my Itunes, (On my Computer) is B/C in many forums - the very first question, *HELPERS* ask, is. "Do you have the latest version of Itunes downloaded on your computer." I wanted to knock out any obvious replies.
    Now-  "DO YOU have any idea,"... how your UNHELPFUL remarks, do absolutely nothing but hurt others that might not have the EXPERIENCE you have? How do you expect people to know things without asking questions? Whew! RUDE!!
