OS X - Fix for wifi disconnect after suspend/resume

OS X - Fix for wifi disconnect after suspend/resume
I've purchased a Mac recently and since upgrading to Maverick have been having some problem with wifi after suspend/resume. Looking into the issue, I've found this thread: https://discussions.apple.com/thread/5495375 and some people have reported that turning off bluetooth did fix the issue.
For my case, this was not possible, so I've tried to make a little fix, that disable bluetooth on suspend and enable it on wake, but with a 10 seconds delay, in order to let the wifi connect successfully.
Here is my github repo for anyone to look at the code: https://github.com/Setsuna666/osx-wifibtfix
Here is the latest version of the fix, which include an uninstall script: https://github.com/Setsuna666/osx-wifibtfix/archive/v1.0.2.zip
If you have any questions or issues, please post it here so it can be easier for me to keep track of.

Installed properly this time:
It appears to work, when I resume from sleep the Bluetooth icon is off (gray) and wifi connects, after 10s Bluetooth icon comes on again. 
Here is the correct output:

  • I can't be the only one with this issue. MacBook Pro Retina Late-2013 WiFi disconnects after waking up from sleep.

    Did anyone buy a MacBook Pro Retina 13" from Best Buy this Black Friday?
    I'm having an issue where the WiFi disconnects after the MacBook wakes from sleep but only after a couple of minutes.
    Once the WiFi disconnects, I can't reconnect to the same network and sometimes it won't find nearby networks.
    I have to turn off the WiFi and wait for at least 5 seconds before turning it back on for it to auto-reconnect to my home network.
    If I wait less than 5 seconds, it will continue to attempt connection to the home network but won't connect.
    I've tried reformatting and deleting my network configurations as well as resetting my modem, power cycling it, etc.
    I am using 2Wire Gateway modem/router from AT&T on b/g network.
    I've tried connecting to a friend's network under Time Warner Cable and the same issue occurs.
    I exchanged the MacBook at a Best Buy for a brand unopened one (I hope) and the same exact thing happens with this new one.
    Really, I can't be the only one with this issue. Unless in a 0.00001% chance I received two defective units in a row?
    Please.. does anyone have a clue why this is happening?

    You're definitely not the only one.  I have the same issue.  I spent 6 hours over multiple days on the phone with Apple support trying a variety of things (some of which are mentioned above), and none of them worked.  They finally sent me a replacement laptop.  I made sure to try it periodicaly as I was moving files and installing applications to see if I ran into it again and things seemed okay at first but now I am running into the same issue and it is terribly annoying.  I've got 5 other devices that connect to the same router and I've never had this issue with any of them.
    My router is a Linksys E2000.  I haven't tried changing the router channel but I have tried to cnnecting to other networks in the building I live in and I have run into the same issue there.

  • Iphone 4S fix for WIFI greyed out

    I have read extensively the fixes for this and after trying them all, decided I had nothing to lose but to try the one that seemed rediculous - PUTTING IT IN THE FREEZER.   I did this, then I restarted my iphone and IT WORKED.  How, I do not know.

    Yes thats work   every time i but it in the freezer for 10 min maxm and open it , and guss what it work , but if your phone gets hot  and restart it , should repate the prosses , but at least i can use wifi if i wanna without repair the wifi chip

  • Why does my iMac WIFI disconnect after 3-4 Hours?

    I have an iMac 3.06 Intel Core 2 and my wifi disconnects after 3-4 hours of use. I can't reconnect to the network until I turn-off the wifi and turn it back on. It appears the ip lease time is up and must be established manually by turning off the wifi and turning it back on (just a guess). Is it possible the firewall or another piece of software is blocking the process? I have an iPhone, MacBook and iPad in addition to the iMac and they all connect properly and stay connected. Does anyone have any ideas what I should verify to get the process working? During the period of time when the iMac is connected all is well. The iMac is running 10.7.2 op system. Thanks for your help.

    I'm havingn the same problem

  • [svn:fx-trunk] 10898: Fix for a bug: After playing a hide effect, a window wouldn't be visible again.

    Fix for a bug: After playing a hide effect, a window wouldn't be visible again.
    The issue here is that all effects that occur because of HIDE end up calling setVisible() (see EffectManager.effectEndHandler).  Window/WindowedApplication was basically left with two concepts of setVisible...the displayObject one and the native application one, and they were out of synch.  So setting visible=true on the window wasn?\226?\128?\153t calling setVisible(true) which controls the display object visibility.  Now instead of doing our work in the visible setter, we override setVisible() and do it in there.

    I run Suse 9.1 Linux, and Suse has a package called lmsensors which by default on my machine gives readings like this:
    Code: [Select]
    temp1:       +27°C  (high =    +0°C, hyst =   +22°C)   sensor = thermistor
    temp2:     +41.0°C  (high =   +80°C, hyst =   +75°C)   sensor = PII/Celeron diode 
    Now that 41C is pretty high for an idle AMD643000+ running at 1000Mhz, 1.08V. Too high, I would say. temp 1 in this case is the SYS temp, temp2 is the CPU temp.
    Now, using lmsensors I can duplicate your little trick and tell it that temp 2 is in fact a 3904 transistor. Having done this can I get readings like this:
    Code: [Select]
    temp1:       +27°C  (high =    +0°C, hyst =   +22°C)   sensor = thermistor
    temp2:     +16.0°C  (high =   +80°C, hyst =   +75°C)   sensor = 3904 transistor 
    Problem is, I'm not sure that the sensor is actually a 3904 transistor! The number's lower, but I was pretty sure that the sensor in the AMD64 is in fact a diode. Also, surely the CPU temp can't actually be that much lower than the SYS temp.
    So, I think your fix succeeds in giving lower temps and that's great in that it will tell your system software that the CPU is not overheating, but I don't think it's the solution to high temp reporting. Anyway, as you say, its a solution for people who can't run with system shutdowns due to bogus high temps.  
    I've been looking at these temp issues with the MSI K8T, and I was thinking the problem was simply a miscalibration. The Winbond sensor chip on my board (maybe the K8N is the same, maybe not) has a sensor temp offset that gets added to the temp coming from the sensor. On the K8T this number is +54C.   Funny number I know, but I've "fixed" the problem while I wait for a real bios fix on the K8T by simply reducing this offset to give me a CPU temp that matches SYS temp when idle. This enables cool'n'quiet fan control to work properly on my system, which is my main practical concern.

    Do you mean a restore to factory settings?. If so did you set up as new or restore from back up afterwards?

  • Blank login screen on the iPad keeps popping up and wifi disconnecting after 20 seconds

    hi, we have an ipad running IOS 5 that keeps having a blank login screen on the iPad keeps popping up and wifi disconnecting after 20 seconds. 
    I am yet to find out why this is, any clues?  (note that both apple.com and facebook are blocked at the router, but nothing else)...

    actually we cannot due to policy reasons... it appears through testing that the iPad is phoning home and sending private data to Apple regardless, it is also odd they placed these PRIVACY settings in About hidden away so that no-one knows they are there.
    From the iPad homescreen, tap on Settings > General > About
    Tap on "Diagnostics & Usage" > select "Don't Send"
    So... anyone else know why if we block Apple, the iPad disconnects from the internet via Wifi?

  • [Solved] "cannot open display" after suspend/resume, possibly broadcom

    Hey peoples,
    [EDIT: I think my initial assumptions are incorrect, this issue seems to be occurring independently of whatever wifi driver I have loaded]
    I'm finding that after suspend/resume my machine will not open any new windows. The windows that were already open continue to function. If I've left a terminal open, and attempt to open a new window I get the message:
    [framps@localhost ~]$ firefox
    Invalid MIT-MAGIC-COOKIE-1 keyInvalid MIT-MAGIC-COOKIE-1 keyError: cannot open display: :0.0
    I've found that removing the broadcom-wl driver from my system seems to fix the issue. I can't see anything particularly obvious in my dmesg. I think I need the broadcom-wl driver as I have not been able to get b43 or bcma to work for my machine.

    It seems that the only option for my  wifi card, BCM43228 is the proprietary broadcom-wl.
    Can anyone suggest how I might be able to get any debugging information for this module? Maybe this driver is conflicting with something else on my system, as I can't find anyone else that is seeing this same issue.
    Very frustrating, my machine is a Thinkpad Edge E530. Because I ordered from New Zealand there was no option to include the alternative Intel card and I was stuck with the broadcom. Apparently there's a whitelist on the BIOS aswell which will prevent me from installing another card.

  • Gigabit NIC reverts to 100mbs after suspend/resume

    My motherboard has an integrated Realtek Gigabit ethernet controller, using the r8169 driver.  See lspci output below.
    It works fine, except after a suspend-resume cycle, it reverts to 100Mb/s rather than 1000Mb/s.  It still works in 100mbs mode, just significantly slower.  I can manually fix it back to GigE via "ethtool -s eth0 speed 1000".  But I'd prefer to not have to do this.
    Is there somewhere I should hard-code the ethtool settings, or should I modify a resume pm script?  Or is there another solution?
    Thanks!

    Hi Matt,
    same problem here. I've had this for several months now. Usually I don't even notice, because I don't transfer large files all that regularly.
    A quick look on the kernel.org bug tracker turned this up: https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=10130 Seems like this is a fairly old issue.
    ethtool gives me the exact same output as you've posted. I'm using the same chip and driver, but different motherboard:

  • [Solved]no sound after suspend/resume after kernel 3.9.2 upgrade

    I don't know  what to provide to help solve this problem. Leave me messages.Thank you!

    I got mine working!
    First I commented out the module parameter from my /etc/modprobe.d//intel-hda-audio.conf:
    #options snd-hda-intel model=dell-eq
    Since it works without that now, I will probably remove the file.
    Next, I went into alsamixer, and noticed a couple items not there before, turned down low:
    "Speaker", and two "HeadPhone" mixers, both turned down almost off.  I turned up the volume on the speaker, and was able to get sound from the speakers.   The same worked for the headphone entries (I have two headphone jacks).
    After I did this, it works better than before because I used to only have one working headphone jack.
    Also, I confirmed sound is still working after suspend/resume for me.
    Hopefully this will help one of you.
    Thanks,the problem has been resolved by downgrade.
    Sound is absolutely normal before I suspend/resume my system,  volume is normal, not too large,not too little. But there's no sound at all after resume it .  I guess it's probably to have something to do with our audio card - HDA intel,  my computer is also a dell laptop( dell 1420 , 2007/2008, really old ).
    My advice is : don't upgrade to kernel 3.9.2 ,it's an odd version( odd version is not stable).

  • [XFCE]Keyboard layout config sometimes gets reset after suspend/resume

    After I got suspend/resume working thanks to the help here, I have still another little problem with it: After suspend/resume the keyboard layout configuration in the corresponding xfce-panel plugin is sometimes reset to US. The keyboard layout should be Russian/German with switching the layouts with LCtrl+LShift. In the xorg.conf everything is fine, but it seems to be disregarded:
    Section "InputDevice"
    Identifier "Keyboard0"
    Driver "kbd"
    Option "XkbRules" "xorg"
    Option "XkbModel" "pc105"
    Option "XkbLayout" "de,ru"
    Option "XkbVariant" ",winkeys"
    Option "XkbOptions" "grp:ctrl_shift_toggle"
    EndSection
    The settings that I make in the panel-applet via its configuration dialogue work though, but they sometimes get reset after a suspend/resume.
    The XFCE session is started via following command in ~/.xinitrc:
    exec ck-launch-session dbus-launch xfce4-session
    Thanks for any hint,
    PhotonX

    I see. Then you should maybe add debug output to check whether the script is run at all and if yes, where it fails. Like
    button/lid)
    echo "lid action caught" >> /home/lid.log
    case "$3" in
    close)
    logger 'LID closed'
    # Suspend and lock the screen
    /usr/sbin/pm-suspend &
    DISPLAY=:0.0 su -c - miki /usr/bin/slimlock
    echo "lid closed" >> /home/lid.log
    open)
    logger 'LID opened'
    # Set the keyboard layout again on IT
    setxkbmap it
    echo "lid opened" >> /home/lid.log
    logger "ACPI action undefined: $3"
    echo "something wrong happened" >> /home/lid.log
    esac
    and then check /home/lid.log after lid close&open.

  • [BUG] Jumbo frames issues after suspend/resume

    I have a 2.66Ghz MacBookPro5,1 which I recently upgraded to Snow Leopard. It's connected to a gigabit LAN and makes use of jumbo frames (MTU 9000).
    Everything was working flawlessly under Leopard, but since the upgrade to 10.6, I've noticed some very strange networking behavior. Essentially, networking goes AWOL as soon as it tries to transfer big data chunks *after a suspend/resume*. Remote sessions (ssh), file tranfers (ftp/afp) are affected.
    AFAICT, small packets work (eg, the output of "uptime" in a ssh session works just fine), but anything "big" (copying a large file over ftp or afp) hangs the connection. It seems that reducing the jumbo frame max size (using "ifconfig en0 mtu <whatever smaller than the previous setting>") temporarily fixes the issue, until the next hang.
    This problem only happens after suspend/resume. Upon cold boot, everything works just fine, so I'm suspecting a driver issue.
    The only difference between previously "working just fine" situation and the current issue is the upgrade from 10.5 to 10.6. I should mention I'm running in 64bit mode.

  • X or GDM dies after suspend/resume (Nvidia card)

    For a while now (about a month, I think), X seems to crash after suspend/resume and I end up back on the GDM login screen.
    The problem is intermittent, but I'd say it happens about 50% of the time. As can be seen in the log below, after a while a new gdm-x-session replaces the one that was running before suspend.
    Any ideas? I'm stuck.

    I have no idea what has changed.

  • Constant Wifi Disconnect After Moving To SystemD

    Hi All,
    I used netcfg for months with a WPA2 connection using the initscripts. I finally moved to systemD. I was getting dbus errors from systemD using systemctl so updated via pacman which fixed the errors. I did this within minutes apart so not for sure if a kernel update broke something - stupid move on my part.
    Any how I followed the wiki guide for netcfg, within a few minutes and after a reboot was happily working away.  I configured the wifi like so:
    systemctl enable netcfg@gloryhole
    Then the wifi disconnecting started at random intervals but very quickly, what seems to be less than 3 minutes.

    After reading some forums they recommended net-auto-wireless.
    systemctl enable net-auto-wireless
    Still no luck, another forum recommended removing netcfg and trying some thing else, since they had constant disconnects. I installed wicd and disabled services that could conflict with wicd.  Disconnect problem still exists
    I verified hardware is OK, in windoze wifi card works great, pulled down many gigs with no problem testing. My laptop has native systemD install with wicd and works great so nothing with my AP.

    So still being frustrated and tired of having a long cat5 cable across my house I decided to take another whack at this.
    First thing first I disabled WPA2 on the AP and let it wide open, even though every other device was working. Was hoping to rule out wpa but instead it got worse.
    I first tried netcfg, after removing everything I could find on wicd. The issue with netcfg is I could connect but couldn't surf. A little testing showed that there is a problem with the wifi link established. It won't allow much or any traffic to go through. Pings barely work, surfing was hit and miss.
    I decided to just connect via cli, once again removed netcfg, wicd, removed any trace files, disabled related services and rebooted to remove previous entries.

    Interesting thing is I am getting a different deauthenticating reason, originally was 2. Deauthenticated reason=3 means "deauthenticated because sending STA is leaving (or has left) IBSS or ESS     The access point went offline, deauthenticating the client" or AP went offline, which it did not. (src: http://www.aboutcher.co.uk/2012/07/linu … on-codes/).
    Keep in mind I run my house on the same wifi so if anything went down somebody always tracks me down to fix it. Also my ISP link is not the problem as I was downloading at the same time and not saturating my pipe.  At this point I think it is just easier to run a cable under the house and mount a jack. Ideas?
