iMac cannot connect to internet after Sequoia Update

Same problem here.

VPN problem indeed!

Check ESET page https://support.eset.com/nl/alert8723

Pretty strange, I’d remove the Wi-Fi interface completely and add a new Wi-Fi interface in system settings.

You would have had to install ESET for it to show up there. Since you didn’t install that, it is not the cause of your problem.

Also, if you are not using the Firewall (you noted it was off), none of that is affecting your Mac.

Do you have any other useless Internet security software installed?

(2022 M2 MacBook Air, Sequoya 15) keep losing connection and trying to connect again and again. No firewall VPN or eset is used. Changing this from fixed to rotating solved my problem. now it connects.

You can open terminal，and use the following command to see filter list

/usr/libexec/ApplicationFirewall/socketfilterfw --list

That's what I thought, no I have no extras installed ESET etc, and this is only

happening with Sequoia not to any of my other macs running Sonoma, and

the mac that has the issues was also fine with Sonoma, it could be a

Safari issue as it seems firefox is working at the moment, but both

browsers stopped working earlier today.

Tried all that and did not work. Unable to get Mac to start in safe mode for some reason. Not able to do that. Have deleted eset and also a VPN software and emptied trash. Also cleared filters for the network. Help

Same problem here. But I don’t have any ESET installed neither Little snitch.

yesterday I was able to get my WiFi connection work… but today it’s dead again.

i have tried to use terminal and check what is blocking incoming connections and it’s says com.apple.controlcenter.

have no idea how to fix it.

by the way! My telegram and WhatsApp are working on laptop and I can still chat and upload images/audio/video/make calla

I'm also facing this issue. Issue doesn't happen only at the start. Unfortunately, my mac would disconnect randomly, while I'm working. To recover my wifi connectivity, I'm required to restart my mac. My mac is always very close to and infront of my wifi router. While my mac is having issues connecting to wifi, my iphone connectivity remains stable and works well.

Okay, good info. What is "Little Snitch?" What is ESET? How do I find them? How do I delete them? I upgraded to Sequoia, first wifi disappeared and two weeks later ethernet connectivity disappeared (even though NW status says ethernet connected).

So maybe the folks giving this guidance are more technical than me but how does Apple let this problem persist when it seems so common???

I am now in the position of having to consider an OS download (which might now even be do-able) as my Mac is not of much use to me w/o connectivity.

I’ve spent a couple of days setting up a new iMac which is running Sequoia 15.3.1

Having thought I’d sorted everything I hit a snag going online.

I’ve spent some time with Apple support today trying to resolve this issue - without success.

I’ve reinstalled the OS 15.3.1 - but no change.

My 2023 MacBook Pro running Sequoia 15.1.1 is running side by side an is ok - i'm not going to update the OS!

I’m connected to my main router and my iPhone is available as a Personal Hotspot and I can connect to the iPhone .

The ’new’ iMac won’t connect to the same (main) router as my Powerbook Pro - I get a 'Cannot connect' message

The iPhone Personal Hotspot doesn’t even show in the iMac’s wifi system settings.

I’ve run a wifi scanner on the iMac and the iPhone doesn’t show on that either.

I've deleted Little Snitch and my VPN but that doesn't help.

The biggest clue for Apple engineers is that my iPhone Personal Hotspot isn't recognised, despite there being a PowerBook Pro running 15.1.1 next to it - which shows the iPhone?

Hola buen día, anoche actualice mi macbook pro y efectivamente tiene el problema de red, ella se concta a la red aparece normal pero no navega, realice tu configuración y es efectiva de una vez me funciono, ya habia visto varias configuraciones y no. Muchas gracias

Goto WiFi and look in details. You will see box like this. Try Fixed and Off.
