I had the same problem, and your solution worked for me. Thanks!
I see the same issue. In my case, it's on a wired network/ethernet connection.
"ping" and "host" report similar errors:
[Tims-MBP:~] tlynch% host google.com

and also in system.log:

My Mac was working fine, then after from waking from sleep it was in this state where are network connectivity failed. My system had plenty of free memory according to Activity Monitor.
The only way I found to correct the issue is to restart my Mac. Both quitting all apps individually and logging in and out of my user account did not help with the problem.

Awesome fix from free-dc! Worked for me too!
Thank you free-DC! It worked for me too!
Thank you sooooooo much free-DC - that's fixed it 🙂 My daughter will be stoked! Cheers
Thank you free DC. I've been messing with my phone for 2 days and your fix was so simple!!!!
thank you - my internet is now working!
my internet still not working, i follow the free dc, it still not working, pleaseeee help. there's another waaay??
I had this problem too. A web search turned up http://sflanders.net/2015/05/05/cannot-access-the-wifi-internet-on-mac-with-cann ot-allocate-memory/ but it's a bit technically complex. If you're comfortable with the command line, this shell script will work:
nslookup cnn.com | grep 'Cannot allocate memory' >/dev/null 2>/dev/null
if [ "$?" != "0" ]; then
sudo route delete -host $(netstat -rn | grep ^default | awk '{print $2}')
networksetup -setairportpower en0 off
networksetup -setairportpower en0 on
fi
