Every time I resume from sleep I have no internet connection. Wifi is connected, it looks like it should be working, but no internet. I have to turn Wifi off and then back on. Then it immediately connects. This happens almost every time I resume from wake up. I've tried resetting various things, removing the network and re-adding it. Same behavior. This happens on various Wifi networks in different locations. Anyone experience the same issue or have a fix?
Got a tip for us?

Not Internet Connection After Resume from Sleep- Every time!

Mine happens when it refused to connect to my router at all... And when it does, it gives a self-assigned IP address. Sometimes it will reconnect itself after a few minutes.
Happens on both Snow Leopard and Yosemite, so it's either my Mac or my crappy router...

Apple "fixed" what worked in prior versions with something that was completely broken.
But now they're replacing it again.

Snow Leopard? Must be something else...

I too have this issue. I actually came to the OS X forum just to post about it, but then I saw this thread. It's unacceptable. It says it's connected but there's a big exclamation point through it. Calling Apple tomorrow. I'm really effing sick of it. Been waiting for a fix ever since Yosemite came out and nothing. EVERY SINGLE GODDAMN TIME I WAKE IT FROM SLEEP!!!!! I hate it. And if I were a new Mac user, this would be a major turn off. I can't imagine giving this laptop to my mother who would call me to tell me the internet doesn't work every single time she opens her computer.
Like I said, it's self-assigned IP address... I wonder if this Yosemite bug is big enough to screw up hardware that it now affects older versions of OS X...
I hope not. But if that's the case then I'm lucky I got AppleCare on this MBA because it's 2 years old already. It's weird, the wifi symbol has an exclamation through it, but if you click on it and open the wifi drop down menu it actually shows that it's connected to my home network. The only solution is turning wifi off and back on. I find myself doing this almost every time I open my laptop and it's to the point of being a major annoyance.
Mine solution: Apple Airport Extreme or TimeMachine, zero problem.
Whenever I use a third-party router this problem occurs again. I tried Netgear R7500, Linksys EA9200 etc, all high end routers, got the identical issue on my macbook pro. I have to manually turn-off and turn-on wifi. As soon as I switch back to my airport extreme, all works just fine!
I get better coverage with these other brands, but having this issue *all* the time. decisions decisions...
This has been much discussed on this forum.
There is quite a sizeable minority having this problem, all with different routers and macs with the constant being that we are all running Yosemite. At the moment there is no fix however, apparently the latest version of Yosemite is suppose to fix this (although, it's been in the fix notes for every update since Yosemite has been released so I'm not counting my chickens just yet).
Keeping my fingers crossed.
