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 have the same problem with the wake reason being "Wake on excessive wake". This is very annoying. I have tried the SMC and PRAM reset and it makes it even worse. Went from waking up every 10 minutes to every 1.5 minutes. I have the new MBPr from 2015 with the lastest 10.11 beta, but not yet upgraded to 10.11.1. Will wait and hope that next weeks proper release will bring so solution.

Adding my two cents here. Closing the lid on the 15" rMBP I bought three days ago and upgraded to El Kapitan and then my router's active sessions I see that my rMBP is establishing and renewing https:// sessions to Facebook 31.13.80.8:443 and Google 74.125.228.240:443 There was also a connection to a port 5223, which I am led to believe by google to be the port used by Apply Push Notification service.

Actually the sessions were connected through Safari. But the point is the lid was closed but my Mac still spun up frequent sessions, then waking up on what seems to be the disconnect

Closing these tabs actually stopped the battery leaking with no wakes for the 20+ minutes I had my laptop's lid closed. If you find your MacBook is frequently spinning up sessions to sites you often browse, try closing those tabs in your browser and see if that helps.


I suspect that the problem actually comes from iCloud syncing my rMBP Safari with my iPhone. Will test and see if that is actually the case.

I have found a reason for my problem and maybe it helps others as well. In my case the wake reason was on excessive Wake. I found out, that once I entered my works wifi range the macbook would wake up and try to connect to the wifi. The problem is it somehow couldn't read the certificate from the keychain to authenticate to the wifi. This meant a modal window was open, prompting me to enter my password for the keychain. The open modal window is the reason the macbook doesn't go back to sleep or wakes up very often.

I think what we've learned from this thread is that there are many (mostly wifi) reasons why new macbooks don't sleep properly. I'm kinda ****** at Apple and their total silence on the topic in spite of the huge amount of evidence that there are many issues with sleep in the latest macbooks (and maybe older macbooks).


Does anyone from Apple read any of these threads? What is the point of us even discussing the issue if Apple has no interest in solving this problem or recognizing that it exists?

Thanks for your input. But I don't think mine is the same as yours. As your saying, " I found out, that once I entered my works wifi range the macbook would wake up and try to connect to the wifi.", I find it the same. What I mean is that I agree with you that Mac would wake itself up when it's been carried to a place where it detects a known wifi hotspot. But I never saw the modal window pop up as you've described.

I am also having the same issue with my 2015 MBP.


Similar numbers too:

Sleep Count:637

Dark Wake Count:627

User Wake Count:12


Last night I had 9% battery left, turned off the wifi, closed the lid, and when I got up this morning, I just got the screen that shows low battery. So, while the Sleep counts didn't increase much if any last night, I still lost the last few % of battery I had left. I do not have power nap enabled.


I can also tell you that my MBP worked perfectly until I upgraded to El Capitan. That's when the "fun" started for me.
