rMBP 2015 Wake Reason: ARPT (Network)

I can't seem to find out what is waking my Mac up so much. Battery life on standby is terrible. Snippet from running "syslog | grep -i "Wake reason"" through Terminal:

Can't seem to find out the issue via Google. I have extensively searched.


Appreciate any help.


P.S. this is a duplicate from rMBP 2015 10.10.3 Wake Reason: ARPT (Network). I do not know how it ended up in the OS X Mavericks section because I clearly remembered choosing Yosemite from the dropdown list. Anyhow, that one is closed and I would appreciate any help I can get from this section of the forum.


Thanks.

MacBook Pro (Retina, 13-inch,Early 2015), OS X Yosemite (10.10.3)

I started having this problem soon after upgrading to el capitan. With the following error:


Oct 8 20:16:54 plato kernel[0] <Notice>: Wake reason: ARPT (Network)

Oct 8 20:16:54 plato kernel[0] <Notice>: ARPT: 1245.229147: ARPT: Wake Reason: Wake on excessive wake


This happened every minute or two. The battery would drain 40% overnight and laptop would be slightly warm in the morning.


I tried everything suggested in the web that I could find: disabled sharing, wake for network access, pmset changes, reinstalled el capitan on the existing install, reinstall after erasing the root partition. I was having the same problem even with a fresh install on a clean partition.


Disabling wifi before sleep fixed, but that was not an option to do every day. But, if there is a script or something that disables wifi on sleep that'd work.


I didn't have this problem on work network only in the home network. In the home network I have three SSID, Two of them are on the of type N (2.4Ghz and 5Ghz) coming from a router running openwrt latest. The third is of type G from a second router used as an extender. It's running dd-wrt. For some reason connecting to the G network while putting the mac didn't cause the mac to wake up through out the night. Only 4-5 times due to the following error:


Oct 9 01:38:29 plato kernel[0] <Notice>: Wake reason: RTC (Alarm)

Oct 9 01:38:29 plato kernel[0] <Notice>: [HID] [ATC] AppleDeviceManagementHIDEventService::processWakeReason Wake reason: Host (0x01)


So, I am planning to connect to the slower G network at home until there is a fix.

Ive been having this problem too. When I'm connected to my router/wifi, the computer never sleeps, wakes up multiple times a minute, and drains all battery. See a sample below:

I tested to see if this is my router by leaving my Wifi ON, and unplugging my router. It sleeps fine with Wifi ON and router OFF. So its the connection between the router and the computer that is doing this. Still is a bug, hope they fix it!


its a Time Warner Router.
