Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
I understand your Mac isn't connecting to the internet after waking from sleep. To help troubleshoot this issue I suggest that you follow through the troubleshooting outlined below:
Symptom: After restarting or waking from sleep, my computer might not connect to the Internet
- After waking from sleep or starting up, your computer may not show that it is connected to a Wi-Fi network.
- After start or wake, your computer may indicate that it is connected to a network, but does not connect to the Internet.
Solution
Use these steps if your computer does not automatically connect to your desired Wi-Fi network.
- Check your TCP/IP settings in the Network pane of the System Preferences. Click the "Renew DHCP lease" button
- Select the Wi-Fi tab and view your Preferred Networks list.
- Remove your stored network passwords using the Keychain Access Utility.
- Open Keychain Access from /Applications/Utilities. Your window will look like this:
- Remove your AirPort network passwords from the login keychain: Select the "login" keychain from the Keychain sidebar. Click the "Kind" column to order the list of keychain items by their type. Remove all entries of the kind: "AirPort network password".
- Remove your AirPort network passwords from the System keychain: Select the "System" keychain from the Keychain sidebar. Click the "Kind" column to order the list of keychain items by their type. Remove all entries of the kind: "AirPort network password".
Note: The above steps will remove your Wi-Fi network passwords. If you do not know them, or if your network does not use passwords to restrict access, you should contact your network administrator.
- Restart your computer.
- Join your Wi-Fi network. You will need to enter your password for your network again if it requires one.
