Network flakyness after wake from sleep

Topic says it all...it's a strange thing. I HAVE network access...I can ssh and get email and web just fine. A couple apps though (RSS Menu, WeatherDock) tell me I don't have network access (via networked syslog server...LoL):
Feb 22 04:50:28 iMac RSS Menu[652]: Connection error: This computer’s Internet connection appears to be offline.
I can go into network prefs, make the interface inactive, then active again and it's fine. I can also ifconfig en0 down, ifconfig en0 up and it's fine, but eh...anyone else having this issue on a 27" iMac?

Hi,
Sorry for this off-topic mail but.. I Couldn't mail you in a more discrete way and the thread that is was about is closed so… it was this or nothing.
I have the same error in my log file as you had in your post ( http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=12720958&#12720958 ). It seems that you solved it, but you didn't say exactly how?
Thanks!

  • After Lion upgrade, having network issues after wake from sleep

    After upgrading to Lion from 10.6.8 on my MacBook Pro (15-inch, Early 2011), I am unable to connect to the Internet after the computer wakes from sleep.  I should rephrase this - I am able to ping IP's and DNS (DNS servers are present) however none of my apps will connect (Safari, iChat, etc) -> they all indicate the Internet is unavailable.  I have two Airport Express's running 7.5.2 extending a WiFi network off an Airport Extreme running 7.5.2.  This issue is specific to waking from sleep.  Any thoughts or suggestions would be appriciated.

    It's definitely linked to Time Machine and backups.
    I think If I put my machine to sleep/close the lid and Time Machine happens to be performing a backup, when I open the lid again, the network connection is lost and I receive a bunch of errors about the backup disk being unavailable. 
    This means that if my mbp isn't in the middle of a backup when I put it to sleep, wifi comes back up without a problem. 

  • BUG: Sandisk USB flash drive in "half-mounted" state after wake from sleep

    My Sandisk Cruzer Crossfire 4GB Flash Drive is left in a half-mounted state after wake from sleep. The Finder believes the drive is still mounted, the icon is on the Desktop. However opening a file on the drive, or trying to eject the drive, results in a long beach ball, followed by a message that I removed the drive without Ejecting it first. The same drive continues to work fine on my Tiger machine, and on PCs.
    Bug Report:
    Setup:
    Macbook 1st Gen (2.0 Ghz)
    Mac OS X Leopard 10.5 Clean Install
    Sandisk Cruzer Crossfire 4GB USB Flash Drive (in either port)
    Repro:
    Plug in the drive.
    Close the MacBook to put it to sleep
    Reopen the MacBook
    Result:
    The lights on the flash drive never light back up after wake from sleep. Navigating the drive, or trying to eject it results in a "you removed the device without ejecting it first" message.
    Expected:
    Drive should still be mounted and accessible after waking back up.

    It may be a design flaw in the device. Mac OS X does a lot more power management than most other OSes, including tearing devices down to little or no power during sleep. It is possible that the device simply misbehaves due to corrupted memory state or reports a substantially different GUID or something similarly bizarre upon wake. (Okay, that last one wouldn't technically be a power management issue....)
    If it doesn't have any problems except when sleeping the system, I would just make sure I unmounted it before putting the machine to sleep and wouldn't worry about it. Maybe check with Sandisk to see if they have a firmware updater for the device.

  • Left USB-Port dead after wake from sleep. Just restart helps.

    I hoped Apples keyboard-Update today would solve my biggest hate-bug in this buggy POS called Leopard. It didn't.
    As usual on my Leopard-Macbook Pro, no device will work on the left USB-Port after I waked the computer from sleep. Just a restart helps. I hoped this update to solve this, because it replaced among others "IOUSBFamily.kext".
    Terminal gives a timeout error for the internal USB-Hub after wake from sleep. I assumed this should be related.
    I'm really angry now.
    When will Apple solve the most urgent problems in Leopard?
    Was 10.5.1 just smoke and mirrors to make (fool people into...) people upgrade who intended to wait until the first maintenance-update?
    Was Leopard Apples attempt to make Windows-Users more comfortable by putting in some heavy extra-bugs and blue screens?
    FIX IT FINALLY! And f... don't wait for Macworld to release 10.5.2. It's desperately needed and the current state of Leopard will leave some people very sad at christmas after getting their first Mac. First impression counts and many more peoples first contact with the Mac will be at christmas...

    Apple knows the problem and for some reason they are stumped on fixing it. this is so bad I can't believe it. On my macbook pro with Leopard installed, USB left port is dead after sleep. Only restarting can power it back up. I have to restart every day to use my external hard drive for time machine or when putting my flash drive in the port.
    Come on already Apple. This is a SERIOUS, SERIOUS problem.
    Fix it.

  • Network connection after waking from sleep

    Hi... More or less any time I allow my MacBook Pro to go to sleep, when I wake it up I am nearly always disconnected from my Airport connection (I connect to a NetGear wireless router via my internal Airport card). I go up to the menu bar and click on the now grey airport icon and I do still see my network in the list of available networks. I click on it, after several seconds a message comes up that says "there was an error joining the Airport network "network name""... But I then simply click on OK (rather than Try Again, I've learned that by trial and error) and the network reconnects just fine... Then when I let the machine sleep again at some later time, I do that all again... Any suggestions of what might be going on??? I do have "Use Interference Robustness" turned on (not that I know why exactly) but I've also had it off before and that seems not to matter... Any suggestions??? thanks... bob..
    FW800 G4 dual 1.25 Ghz and 17 inch MacBook Pro Mac OS X (10.4.8)

    I have "join preferred networks" selected, and mine os the only one on the list, and it still does not connect after waking from sleep. It is WEP security, not WPA2. I checked out the following article, but it was of no help:

  • Connection Lost After Wake From Sleep

    I am using a Macbook Pro and Linksys WRT150N W/L router. Every time my MBP wakes from sleep, I lose my internet connection. My menu bar still shows that I'm connected to the network, but I lose all connectivity. I cannot connect to internet or my router settings unless I do a complete restart. Network preferences shows connected to network but no connection to my router IP address under TCP/IP tab in the advanced settings. I also have a drop out of signal a few times an hour. My iMac DV does not experience the drop outs or connection loss at anytime. I have reset my router numerous times and used default factory settings all with the same results. Does anyone have an idea what the problem may be? Thanks.

    I was always experiencing drop outs as far as what my signal was showing in my menu bar. It would drop out even if I was on top of my router. I had upgraded to 10.4.11 and the day after I did that, the problems started. I thought I might as well upgrade to 10.5 to see if that might help it. I think the 10.4.11 had done something to my W/L card and upgrading to 10.5 wouldn't have helped it unless I upgraded from 10.4.10 to 10.5, skipping 10.4.11 all together. I'm gonna bring my router and MBP into the genius bar and see what they can tell me about. Thanks for replying. I'm glad and sad to hear that I'm not the only one experiencing these symptoms.

  • No IPv6 after wake from sleep

    Hello,
         When my MB pro wakes from sleep there is no IPv6 connectivity. In order to restore IPv6 I need to stop/start the Thunderbolt Ethernet adapter (make service inactive/make service active) or reboot.

    This causes problems for IPv4 as well because apps like Firefox and Safari try using the IPv6 DNS servers and give up before falling back to the IPv4 servers.  So this problem breaks more than IPv6.
    Is this a bug or do I have something misconfigured?
    Thanks.
                                   --Tom

    I see this (sort of) behaviour as well. When I look into the tcp/ip tab of the network (system prefs) I see
    fe80::1:1 as router, that is why v6 stops working. After turning v6 off and on again the correct router IP appears.
    NB. this is on wifi

  • Password not required immediately after wake from sleep

    Every once in a while when my retina macbook pro wakes from sleep I do no need to enter my password immediately.  Instead it just starts with no password required and then 5-10 seconds later it takes me to the lock screen and asks for my password.  Other times it will ask for my password, start up after its entered and then 5-10 seconds later it takes me back to the lock screen and asks for my password again.  Usually when it "takes me back to the login screen" it actually just makes the screen black until I press a key or move the mouse and then it "wakes up" again and shows the login screen.
    Also is it common for it to hang for a while before allowing me to type my password after waking from sleep?  Frequently it will take 10+ seconds before I can start typing in the password field or the clock updates etc.  Its a 2.3ghz core i7 with 16GB of ram.
    I have installed all updates and it should be noted that I do have the "require password immediately after sleep or screen saver begins" option enabled in system preferences.

    Hi Kevin,
    You mention that you moved the TC's network up in priority, so you may have already done these things as well. Apologies in advance if that is the case.
    If you normally use your MBP with wireless, make sure that the AirPort connection is that top of the connections list in System Preferences > Network. Click on small gear icon at the bottom of list to put the Airport connection first in line to connect so the MBP will not look for an ethernet connection first.
    Click on the Airport connection to highlight it and then click Advanced. If you have other wireless networks that you can delete, use the - (minus) button to do so. Ideally, you'll only have a few networks displayed. Confirm that your wireless network name is first at the top of this network list.
    Make sure there is a check mark next to Remember Networks Joined. Leave the next two check boxes blank.
    Any help? My MBP connects consistently and quickly with these settings when the cover is opened.

  • USB mouse freezes after wake from sleep.

    Since the 10.8.2 update my Logitech USB mouse freezes after waking up the computer from sleep or when it goes into energy save from non use. This also happens to my brand new MBPR. I tries repair permissions and reset the smc. Any suggestions?

    I get a frozen mouse (Microsoft Intellimouse Optical) on my 2012 Mac Mini running Mavericks (it did it with Mountain Lion also) when waking from sleep about 75% of the time which works again if I unplug/replug it (light is on and mouse buttons work when it's frozen, but the pointer won't move).  It does this whether I use a built-in USB3 port, a USB2 hub and now also with my new USB3 hub. 
    However, my 2008 Macbook Pro also has an Intellimouse connected to it when docked and it NEVER freezes when waking from sleep whether using the built-in USB2 port or a Gmyle USB3 card port.  Either way, the mouse wakes fine and it's the SAME MODEL MOUSE and SAME OSX verison.  I have no idea why the inconsistency.  It ***** because "Wake on Network Activity" FINALLY works right here in Mavericks with XBMC on my Mac Mini so there's a perfect opportunity to save some electricity.  I got excited when it woke up two times in a row with 10.9.1 and set up my sleep controls only to find it wouldn't go to sleep with the Energy Savings menu because I have an external USB3.0 3TB media drive connected (at all times).  I finally found out (through more patient testing) that once the drive spun down (possibly on its own power saving timer as I'm not sure the "Shut down hard drives when possible" setting works in Mavericks; it was messed up in Mountain Lion in 10.8.4 and even though 10.8.5 fixed it, I'm not sure Mavericks is using the same code.  It doesn't seem to shut down any faster with or without the setting on and shuts off several minutes after the computer attempts to go to sleep (on a 1 minute test setting; I think WD defaults to 10 minutes in firmware). 
    Anyway, once that was resolved and I saw it would go to sleep eventually once the drive spun down (it will sleep instantly if I select SLEEP from the Apple menu which I find odd if it's such a big deal that it's connected....), I thought OH BOY!  I'm all set.  Then I woke it from that sleep and found my mouse was frozen again..... :-(  What a PITA to unplug/plug the mouse every time it wakes from sleep.  It's not worth it.  I'll just have to pay the extra few bucks in electricity each month I could have saved to avoid such a freaking nightmare hassle.  Why on God's Green Earth, Apple CANNOT or WILL NOT fix their darn energy savings features is just beyond me.  Instead of spending all their time making horrible horrible ugly icon/GUI updates to iOS and making it slower and slower and slower, why don't they actually fix some darn bugs in OSX for once in their lives.... I'm starting to think I should give Windows another chance I'm so annoyed right now.  But then I think about having to run a malware program and have that program update and Windows software/security updates 3x a day and I think I can just deal with the Mini not sleeping.....
    I'd like to know why Apple couldn't figure out those of us with multiple monitors would want a dock on BOTH monitors all the time either (first side-mount docks wouldn't migrate and now in 10.9.1, bottom-mounted docks won't migrate here either, leaving a dock on one monitor all the time and if that's the monitor that is showing full-screen video, you lost your dock completely while the video is playing.  They finally figured out after a full decade that having a menu bar on both screens would be a good idea, but it just didn't occur to them that the same is true of the dock.  How much are they paying these guys?  Too much apparently (or is it too little to attract talented thinkers? Nah, it couldn't be since we give them feedback and they just ignore it).

  • Slow Wi-Fi Reconnect After Wake from Sleep (Macbook Pro Retina Mid 2012)

    Hello!
    I'm not sure if anyone has experienced this problem, maybe someone out there can help.
    The issue I'm having is with Wi-Fi taking a long time to reconnect after my Macbook Pro Retina wakes from sleep. Usually I need to go and reselet the network.
    I've gone through some trouble shooting forums and have had no success. I've tried turning off Wi-Fi and turning it back on after a couple minutes and it turns on right away.
    Has anyone experienced this problem?
    Regards

  • Crashes after wake from Sleep after 10.8.1 update

    2.5 Ghz Mac Mini (mid 2011), 8 Gigs of RAM
    Since the day I upgraded to 10.8.1 I have had persistent crashes, 1 every 24 hours or so. It's always shortly after a wake from sleep. In all cases, it is impossible to switch to a random open application. But once I hit that application, no other application will respond to anything, including a Force Quit, or if it will force quit, it won't relaunch. A shut down will hang because an app refuses to quit. I can quit the Finder, but it won't relaunch. Have reinstalled Mountain Lion twice, zapped the PRAM, reset the SMC, checked and extensively tested the HD and RAM. Replaced RAM with original Apple RAM. Didn't help, so I swapped back to the RAM from Crucial. I can't think of anything else to try. Machine does not crash unless it has been asleep. Runs flawlessly when sleep is disabled. After a reboot (usually via a shut down via the power switch, start from scratch, check of the HD integrity, and then a clean restart) the machine will run fine, sleep and wake normally for about 24 hours. As near as I can tell from the logs, the hangs usually begin right after the Time Machine Backup after a wake from sleep finishes. If I don't allow the machine to sleep, there are no problems of any kind. Making me crazy. Did not occur under Lion or the .0 version of Mountain Lion. Is making me crazier than I normally am which is sorta serious.

    Any solutions to this problem?  I too have this kernel panic, however it only happens about once a week.  Always upon wake from sleep as you've indicated. 
    FYI I don't have intego software, or an APC installed.  Nor am I using filevault.
    This is on an up to date, MacBook Pro Retina.

  • Network issues after returning from sleep mode

    I'm noticing this issue on T440, Twists, T420s, whether it's Windows 8, Windows 8.1 or Windows 7.  Sometime around the end of last year and the beginning of this year, my users suddenly started reporting problems with the machines after returning from sleep mode.  The network adapter (whether plugged in or using wifi), would show limited connectivity and would not connect to the internet until the machine is rebooted.
    I've tried updating drivers, using system restores, disabling the network adapters from shutting down to conserve power, OS network diagnosis & network adapter resets, none of which has worked.  Hibernation is disabled on all machines.
    The only fix I have is to reinstall the OS over the top of the system and reinstall all updates.  Looking for help with this issue.
    Thanks!

  • MBA not connecting to network drives after waking from sleep

    I have been having this problem over the past few days. When my lat 2010 MBA wakes from sleep it will not connect to my NAS. If I try to force it too connect finder will crash and I get the cannot find finder.app error -10801. The only way I have been able to get the MBA working is a hard reset. Then all is well until I close the lid and wake it up at some point.
    I was thinking about re-loading SL, but thought I would check here for any thoughts on this problem.

  • Slow LAN Networking Speeds after Resuming from Sleep

    I use my mac mini as a HTPC running Plex. I have it connected to my Windows media server with 802.11n. Works fine but sometimes after resuming from sleep the network speed drops off to an unacceptable level (from 72 Mb/sec to 5 Mb/sec). Disconnecting and reconnecting doesn't help. Switching to G doesn't help. Only restarting the mini restores the connection to full speed.
    None of my Windows clients on the same network have any troubles.
    Thoughts?

    Looks like Plex might be causing the problem. I always have plex running and it appears as though if Plex makes a request for a file on the share before OS X is done re-mounting it after sleep, it kills the whole process.
    Shouldn't the OS be robust enough to handle a situation like this?
