Wifi connection lost after sleep

Hello guys,
I have a MacBookPro retina 15" and every time my mbp go in sleep mode it lost the wifi connection...
Someone solved this issue?
bye bye,
Oscar

Test after taking each of the following steps. Back up all data before making any changes.
1. Make sure the network is on the preferred list by following these instructions.
2. Follow the instructions in this support article under the heading "Symptom: The network connection drops unexpectedly."
3. Make a note of all your settings for Wi-Fi in the Network preference pane, then delete the connection from the connection list and recreate it with the same settings. You do this by clicking the plus-sign icon below the connection list, and selecting Wi-Fi as the interface in the sheet that opens. Select Join other network from the Network Name menu, then select your network. Enter the password when prompted and save it in the keychain.
4. Launch the Keychain Access application. Search for and delete all AirPort network password items that refer to the network. Make a note of the password first.
5. In some cases, the problem has been resolved by repairing permissions on the startup volume.
6. Reinstall OS X.

  • Why is wifi connection lost after sleep/wake mode?

    I've had this iMac a little over a year and had not experienced this until a few days ago.  Every time my computer comes out of sleep mode the wifi is no longer connected.  I must turn it off wifi and turn it back on again to re-establish a connection.  Any suggestions? Thx!

    Hello tim290,
    After reviewing your post, it sounds like after the computer wakes from sleep it does not connect to the internet. I would recommend that you read this article, it may be able to help the issue.
    Wi-Fi: How to troubleshoot Wi-Fi connectivity - Apple Support
    Symptom: After restarting or waking from sleep, my computer might not connect to the Internet
    After waking from sleep or starting up, your computer may not show that it is connected to a Wi-Fi network.
    After start or wake, your computer may indicate that it is connected to a network, but does not connect to the Internet.
    Solution
    Use these steps if your computer does not automatically connect to your desired Wi-Fi network.
    Check your TCP/IP settings in the Network pane of the System Preferences. Click the "Renew DHCP lease" button
    Choose System Preferences from the Apple menu.
    Choose Network from the View menu.
    Select Wi-Fi, then click the Advanced button in the lower-left hand corner of the screen.
    Click the TCP/IP tab from the top of the screen.
    Click the "Renew DHCP lease" button.
    Select the Wi-Fi tab and view your Preferred Networks list.
    Select each network and click the minus (-) sign to remove those networks from your Preferred Networks list.
    Click OK and close the Network preferences.
    Remove your stored network passwords using the Keychain Access Utility.
    Open Keychain Access from /Applications/Utilities. Your window will look like this:
    Remove your AirPort network passwords from the login keychain: Select the "login" keychain from the Keychain sidebar. Click the "Kind" column to order the list of keychain items by their type. Remove all entries of the kind: "AirPort network password".
    Remove your AirPort network passwords from the System keychain: Select the "System" keychain from the Keychain sidebar. Click the "Kind" column to order the list of keychain items by their type. Remove all entries of the kind: "AirPort network password".Note: The above steps will remove your Wi-Fi network passwords. If you do not know them, or if your network does not use passwords to restrict access, you should contact your network administrator.
    Restart your computer.
    Join your Wi-Fi network. You will need to enter your password for your network again if it requires one.
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
    Have a nice day,
    Mario

  • Wifi connection lost after sleep in mountain lion

    tried deleting all known networks and wifi services and reconnecting, but there is no improvement.

    I was having the same problem after upgrading to mountain lion.
    What i did was in Finder went to /Library/Preferences/SystemConfiguration/  and deleted all the networking plists (refer screen shot). Then restarted the Mac and in Network Preferences reconnected to my WLAN.
    That solved the problem.

  • Airport connection lost after sleep mode

    Hello everbody,
    Each time I send my PowerMac G4 MDD Dual 867 to sleep it won't to connect to my (or rather to any) Airport network anymore after waking up, it just seems as if Airport is completely defunct after waking up.
    My iBook G4 works without any problems on the same network, by the way.
    I know the workaround with restarting IPv4 networking (described here: http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=1122310&#1122310) and I have also created an AppleScript for automatising this process, however I am still wondering, if this issue will ever be addressed by Apple, since it is still present for me in 10.4.6.
    Best regards,
    Björn Wilmsmann
    PowerMac G4 MDD Dual 867 with standard Airport card   Mac OS X (10.4.6)  

    Okay, this might not solve your problem, but I had a similar problem when I switched from WPA2 to WEP on my Airport, therefore also changing the password which again somehow got my Powerbook confused.
    I went into System Preferences > Network > Airport and looked at my "Preferred Networks" list (Not "By default, join..." > "Automatic"). Then I edited my airport network in that list (the small "Edit" button) and I saw that the password somehow was corrupted. When I corrected this error my Powerbook began joining automatically after sleeping again. Strangely, this setting has nothing to do with the Keychain Access, even though you can find your base station's password there too...
    Oh, and I might add: My airport is on a closed network and is therefore not "visible"...

  • Wireless Internet connectivity lost after sleep

    I've got a problem where I keep losing my wireless network connection after going to sleep.
    The situation is that I'm connecting to my university's secure network. I have the credentials saved on my MacBook. When I need to go and leave my computer on my desk, I go back to the login window, and close the lid. When I come back and open it again, I'm instantly asked for the network password, at the login screen. Regardless of whether I enter it or dismiss the dialog, I'm unable to get a connection automatically after I resume my user session. There's an exclamation mark on the network icon and it says that there's no internet connection on the menu. When I click on this warning, I'm asked to repair the network connection and re-connect to it. This works, but I'd much rather that this be done automatically. Is there no way for me to resume connectivity after waking up my MacBook without having to manually re-connect?
    Thanks in advance for any suggestions.

    The problem's still happening in 10.6.2. I lose my Internet connection when I go back to the login window, then close the lid on my MacBook so that it goes to sleep. When I awake it, and log back in, I'm shown as being connected to the network, but not to the Internet. I have to manually re-connect.
    When I just close the lid without exiting to the login window, it appears that my Internet connection is re-established automatically, though, on re-awakening. I'm puzzled as to why this is occurring. It looks like a bug to me.

  • Wireless Connection lost after sleep: iMac 27-inch

    When my iMac goes into sleep mode, or logs off after pre-determined time, it loses the wireless connection to the router. I then have to go to the upper right of the screen, select my router from the list of available routers, and force a connection.
    Has anybody else experienced the inability to maintain persistent wireless connections?
    Thanks!

    I had the same problem for weeks with my new 27" iMac.  I tried resetting p-ram, adjusting network settings, throwing out preferences for network settings - - - everything!  Nothing worked.  I final called Apple support and they told me to unplug EVERYTHING from the Mac, including power, wait 30 seconds, and reboot.
    Works fine now.
    Hope that helps!

  • Connection lost after sleep mode

    When my computer comes out of sleep mode, it's not connecting to the Airport wireless connection.  Waiting doesn't seeme to matter...the icon on my iMac (upper right on screen) shows no connection.  I have to manually turn off Airport and turn it back on to get it to connect (turning it off and on using the icon).
    I have made zero changes to my system, other than that we moved to a new home.  No equipment changes...no settings changes.  What the heck is going on to cause it to no longer connect when coming out of sleep mode?  And more importantly, how do I fix that?  Thanks very much!

    Try the following, in order, until (hopefully) resolved:
    1a. Delete Preferred Network(s)
    System Preferences > Network > AirPort > Advanced > AirPort tab
    Under "Preferred Networks," delete the network(s) you regularly use from the list.
    1b. Delete AirPort Keychain Entries
    Launch the "Keychain Access" application located in Applications/Utilties.
    Click on the "Kind" filter at the top, and look for any "AirPort network password" entries...and delete them.
    1c. Add Preferred Network(s)
    System Preferences > Network > AirPort > Advanced > AirPort tab
    Add the preferred network(s) using the "+" button.
    Restart or log out then back in.
    2. Move System Configuration Files
    (Note: You will have to reestablish your network connections settings.)
    Go to /Library/Preferences
    Move the SystemConfiguration folder to the desktop.
    Restart your Mac. (Note: OS X will rebuild the files that are now sitting on your desktop. If this doesn't resolve the issue, you can move the folder back to it's original location.)

  • Bluetooth connection lost after sleep mode

    I'm using a bluetooth keyboard with my iPhone. It works great. However, if the phone goes into sleep mode, it does not keep the connection and I have to re-establish the connection through settings each time. Is there a way to keep the connection or have it automaticaly reconnect?

    I use the Apple bluetooth. When I sleep my iPad it actually puts the keyboard to sleep. Probably to save the batteries. When I wake the iPad, I still have to go to the Bluetooth and reconnect via the iPad. The keyboard automatically turns back on so I don't have to power it on. I think that is the best you could hope for.

  • Mail Connections Lost After Sleep - sum up the sollutions?

    In https://discussions.apple.com/thread/4268728?tstart=0 9 pages are spend on possible sollutions to this problem.
    I had this problem, then it disappeared for quite some time, but now I have it again. I not remember what I did at the time, possible a suggestion from these 9 pages.
    - Is there an overview that someone has of all th possible sollutions, I am a bit hesitant in going through all the options.
    - it seems, looking at the last page, that there is not one sollution? which ones work best?
    Thanks

    Try a restart.
    Do a backup, using either Time Machine or a cloning program, to ensure files/data can be recovered. Two backups are better than one.
    Try setting up another admin user account to see if the same problem continues. If Back-to-My Mac is selected in System Preferences, the Guest account will not work. The intent is to see if it is specific to one account or a system wide problem. This account can be deleted later.
    Isolating an issue by using another user account
    If the problem is still there, try booting into the Safe Mode.  Disconnect all peripherals except those needed for the test. Shut down the computer and then power it back up. Immediately after hearing the startup chime, hold down the shift key and continue to hold it until the gray Apple icon and a progress bar appear. The boot up is significantly slower than normal. This will reset some caches, forces a directory check, and disables all startup and login items, among other things. When you reboot normally, the initial reboot may be slower than normal. If the system operates normally, there may be 3rd party applications which are causing a problem. Try deleting/disabling the third party applications after a restart by using the application uninstaller. For each disable/delete, you will need to restart if you don't do them all at once.

  • Is there a fix for the wifi connectivity issue after ios6 update?

    Is there a fix for the wifi connectivity issue after ios6 update?
    Cannot connect to any wifi since update to 6.0.1
    How do I get update to 6.0.2?
    Will that even help?

    Some things to try first:
    1. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord for 30 seconds or longer) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
    2. Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
    3. Change the channel on your wireless router (Auto or Channel 6 is best). Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
    4. Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.
    5.  Renew IP Address: (especially if you are droping internet connection)
        •    Launch Settings app
        •    Tap on Wi-Fi
        •    Tap on the blue arrow of the Wi-Fi network that you connect to from the list
        •    In the window that opens, tap on the Renew Lease button

  • FaceTime fails with "WiFi Connection Lost"

    My Google skills haven't found any matches for this, but perhaps others have seen it in passing at least.
    I've noticed recently that I've been having problems with FaceTime calls to a friend of mine. For the past month since he got his iPhone 4, he'd end up losing the WiFi connection, but now it's happening to me, too.
    The symptom is that the FaceTime call will be going fine for a while, and then it will just hang with no motion in the picture from the other phone for about 10 seconds, then the phone will beep and display this error:
    FaceTime Failed
    WiFi Connection Lost
    <OK>
    At this point, I find that my WiFi indicator in the status bar is gone and replaced with "3G". It has indeed lost its connection to the WiFi access point (a Time Capsule).
    Going into the iPhone's settings, I see that it shows there that it is still connected to my WiFi network (showing a checkmark next to my WiFi network name, although it still says "3G" at the top). Cycling WiFi off and back on corrects the problem.
    My friend is also using his iPhone 4 connected to a Time Capsule, so we have similar setups. I'm beginning to wonder whether there's some problem either in iOS 4 or the Time Capsule that causes the wireless connection between them to disconnect in an aberrant fashion.
    So, anyone else seen or heard of this?

    FaceTime connection problems on my iPad2 was magically solved by changing the DNS number (in the Settings > Wi-Fi menus) to:
    208.67.222.222, 208.67.220.220
    (yes, there is a space after the comma, and a space after the numbers 7)
    I recommend that you write down your present DNS number for safekeeping before you make this change.
    I hope this solves your FaceTime connection problem!
    All the best,
    Brad P.

    Hi Alione2112. Does this happen to your other handheld devices? I am not really sure which is causing the challenges. But, try adjusting the router's wireless channel and see if it will help.

  • Wireless connection lost after macbook pro sleeps for more than 15 minutes

    It's annoying. I have a brand new macbookpro 3.06Ghz 17" hi-res screen running OS-X 10.6.3 and the wireless connection keeps dropping after the computer is either turned off or sleeping for more than 15 minutes.
    My router is a linksys wireless G, has dd-wrt software in it which is very powerful. When I release or renew the DHCP at the router, the mackbook connects to the wireless network, no problem.
    What configuration can be done at the macbook as to not have it time-out airport wireless connections unless I renew/release DHCP at the router? This is an annoyance beyond the limits of anyone's patience.... Thanks in advance for any help!

    Well, since nobody answered this post I decided to try a bunch of things and I believe I came to a solution:
    1 - Make airport the first connection under System Preferences->Network
    2 - In the advanced window:
    - Under AirPort: Keep only one network name on the list (the one you use all the time)
    - Select 'remember networks this computer has joined' and deselect all other boxes
    - Take note of the Airport ID (xx:xx:xx:xx:xx) and put it in your router's MAC address list. I do this because I only allow connections to my router from mac IDs that are on the list I create. In my case, I have my macbook pro and my PS3 system. If you don't know how to edit the MAC list in your router, do some research. It's pretty easy.
    - Under TCP/IP: Select "Using DHCP" on the IPv4 drop box
    - Select "Off" for IPV6 drop box
    - Under DNS, after you connect at least once, you should see (grayed out) your router's IP address on the left box and the domain on the right side box.
    Finally, under "Ethernet" you should see your Mac address there, the configure option should be set to Automatically and MTU as standard (1500).
    Press OK and then press "Apply" and lock that screen by clicking on the padlock at the bottom left. BTW on the top of this screen Location should be "Automatic" - if not, select it and apply.
    Done! Your wireless should connect quickly after the computer is turned on or waken up from sleep state. This assumes you configured your router correctly (mac addresses, frequencies, etc).
    Good Luck to all who try this - at least I have not have any more dropped wireless connections.

  • Server connection lost after "wake-from-sleep"

    I've got a network attached storage (NAS) device which I use as a location for backing up information from my hard drive. It's a windows based server so I use smb://servername to connect. I've got things set so that my Mac will connect when I log in but I've noticed that the computer will lose connection with the server after waking-from-sleep. Has any one else run into this? Any thoughts?
    17" G4 iMac   Mac OS X (10.3.9)  

    hi there--
    i would write down all your network settings if you don't know them, and then trash the /library/preferences/systemconfiguration folder. (that's at the root or harddrive level). then restart the computer and re-enter your network settings. this solves a lot of problems with connections cutting out after sleep. [ 8 ) ]
