How to fix MacBook Pro connecting to WiFi with no internet when on Sleep Mode
MBP 16" (2023)
macOS Monterey / Sonoma
Sometimes after sleep MBP connects to the known wifi network but without any access to the internet. Other devices connected over the same wifi network work perfectly. The issue is not linked to a precise router model, internet provider or location. It happens quite randomly.
- Switching on and off Wifi on the Mac and reconnecting to the same network has no success.
- Connecting to another wifi network leads to the same result - no internet.
- Using Apple Wifi Diagnostic tools doesn't solve the case.
- No VPN was set when the issue appeared for the first time.
- The router firmware is updated and works perfectly with older Macs.
- Date & Time are set correctly, macOS is up to date.
The issue persists. It was spotted numerous times on Monterey, now on Sonoma.
The only working solution is and was to restart the Mac.
