Mar 29, 2014 10:49 PM in response to RonMarionby prashantkurlekarus,I have a same problem on MacBook Pro Late 2013, OSX 10.9.2

Mar 30, 2014 10:46 AM in response to prashantkurlekarusby JayKayBeeDee,I turned my bluetooth on, then off again, and I no longer have the problem now as long as bluetooth is off. But this is not an okay fix. I'm just lucky I don't use bluetooth often.
I will be calling tech support again, sigh....

Mar 30, 2014 12:00 PM in response to JayKayBeeDeeby AustinJGibson,Some people that I have helped reported that resetting the SMC solves the issue. It may or may not work.
Resetting the SMC of an Intel-based portable Mac with a battery you should not remove on your own
Note: This will not delete any data.
The SMC is responsible for controlling various system functions. None of your data will be deleted by resetting the SMC.
Shut down the computer by going to Apple () > Shut Down…
Select Shut Down or allow the computer to shut down automatically.
Plug in the MagSafe power adapter into a power source and then connect it to your Mac if you have not already done so.
On the built-in keyboard, press the (left side) Shift (⇧), Control (⌃), and Option (⌥) keys and the Power Button at the same time.
Release the (left side) Shift (⇧), Control (⌃), and Option (⌥) keys and the Power Button at the same time.
I hope I helped.

Apr 1, 2014 9:27 AM in response to AustinJGibsonby Zwyser,I have the same problem on my MacBook Pro and it is very annoying as I am using bluethooth a lot. Apple seems to have addressed this issue on the iMac but not on the other ones... I am not sure if I should try the SMC fix. Can this do any harm?
Here is the link with the fix for the iMac: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS4209

Apr 3, 2014 2:52 PM in response to RonMarionby paullincoln,I have this problem too. Its costing me money and time.
Apple dont care this is a number of issues with apple.
There is no way to complain.
I hope there shares take a nose dive so they sit up and listen, but then this is to late.
Do it now apple get your products to just work hassle free
Bad Apple

Apr 8, 2014 7:34 PM in response to RonMarionby SASLTD,Go to > system preferences > Network > Advanced > Wifi
Delete all the connections you do not need anymore ie hotspots, airports, hotels, etc...
And drag your connections in order of preference / most frequent use
Exit and save preferences
It will now connect much faster since it doesn't have to go through the whole list to find the right credentials
That fixed the issue for me

Apr 19, 2014 12:41 PM in response to avicekby raleighstorm,Had the same problem. I had to click turn wifi off and then back on again evey time after my Imac running Maverick OSX awoke from sleep. This was my solution - Go to System Preferences and click on the Energy Saver icon. Uncheck the box that says " wake for network access. This did the trick for me.

Apr 24, 2014 10:01 AM in response to raleighstormby arp2000,None of these fixes work for me. I have tried them all.
I am still affected by the bug that disconnects wifi when my MBA goes to sleep and fails to reconnect automatically when it is woken from sleep.
I can confirm it only happens when on battery and when bluetooth is turned on.

Apr 24, 2014 5:58 PM in response to arp2000by AustinJGibson,I wonder if this is caused by the new AC wifi...

May 11, 2014 1:12 PM in response to SLihousttesby berrythekid,Thank you, this fixed the issue for me. So annoying!
PS - I turned bluetooth back on and it still auto connects to wifi when I come back from sleep mode.
Thanks again.
