What steps do you currently take, to get Wi-Fi back..?
1. If you are using Wi-Fi only as your connection, make sure that Wi-Fi is set first in the service order.
To do that, open the Network Preference, click on the cog at the bottom of the Network Preference panel and select Set Service Order.
Then drag Wi-Fi to the top of the list and click OK.
2. Make sure that Location: is set to Automatic and not something else.

I'm using a hard wire connection and two mac;s connected to the AT&T Gateway. One mac is effected and the other one is not.
Ethernet connection is even better, again what steps do you take to get the connection back on that Mac...?
Compare the settings... are they the same on both...?
Well I start by killing the power to AT&T's Gateway and do a hard reboot. It kills everything but when the Gateway has rebooted I find that my eMail and all thing relating the internet are working once again. But when the mac goes to sleeper is put to sleep. There is not internet related connection until I do a hard reboot again.
I have even taken the step of test via my test account problem remains.
Last night I reinstalled my current OS X and the issues remains.
I sure shop I'm not looking at another man in my future!

One more thing my ethernet is in first place followed by my wireless.
Hmm.. If all the network setting are set exactly the same on both computers...? I would next try a new or different Ethernet cable to the computer that is not connecting properly after waking.
Of late when I put my mac to sleep I loose my internet connection when it start up again... any ideas?
