WiFi not autoconnecting when resuming from sleep mode after updating mac to lion I have been using mac and I have recently upgraded the same to lion and the problem that I am facing is that WiFi is not autoconnecting when resuming from sleep mode, I was not having the same issue before when I was using Snow Leopard, I have tried adding the connection as a preferred connection in the Networks/Advanced but that does not seems to be making any difference, is there anyone who has faced the same after updating their mac to lion and has an idea about resolving this issue?? |

Re: WiFi not autoconnecting when resuming from sleep mode after updating mac to lion You are not alone here as I am having the same issue, in my case I am running Have you tried using and I am running 10.7 on a MacPro 1,1 (2.0GHz)m, the weird thing that I have found is that when I am running Network Assistant/Diagnostic then I am getting all the green lights but then the Airport Extreme (Dual-Band) is not getting displayed in the Airport Utility list, it seems as if something is not computing properly, even I was not having the same issue before it just started prior to upgrading to Lion, other than this I am also having issues with track pad, they does not seems to be working when I am scrolling up and down or going back on some pages, I am using WPA2 ? Personal and I am not having any type of VM on my Mac, I have tried all the possible solution that I could have but then they have just not helped and now I am waiting for next software update but then if anyone finds out a solution for fixing this issue then please share it will be highly appreciated. |

Re: WiFi not autoconnecting when resuming from sleep mode after updating mac to lion I was facing the same issue before where there was no more autoconnection to my home network but then later after trying out a number of solutions I was finally able to fix it out if you want then you can try out the same and see if it is helping you out as well or not.In order to solve the issue you will just have to delete plist file corresponding to aiport which is /Library/Preferences/SystemConfiguration/com.apple.airport.preferences.plist you just have to follow three simple steps:

Re: WiFi not autoconnecting when resuming from sleep mode after updating mac to lion You all can try out new lion update (10.7.3) as it is found to be mentioning "Resolve a Wi-Fi connection issue when waking from sleep" in the fix list, it is fixing out the below things as well, so if you are having any of the below mentioned issues as well then you should surely try new lion update (10.7.3):

Re: WiFi not autoconnecting when resuming from sleep mode after updating mac to lion I am not sure but then if anyone has not been able to solve out their issue from the solution that has been mentioned above then they can try out the following the below shell script: Checking out network information- Here you will have to first find out the name of your Wi-Fi connection it is called "Wi-Fi” by default but then some of you might have renamed the same for performing network troubleshooting steps, so just go in to the Network system preferences and make a note of the your Airport connection, it will be listed in the connection list which will be just next to Ethernet, FireWire, VPNs, Bluetooth etc. Creating the script file-
/usr/sbin/networksetup -setnetworkserviceenabled Wi-Fi off /usr/sbin/networksetup -setnetworkserviceenabled Wi-Fi on sleep 10
Checking out if the script is executable-
Now the script is ready to run in a globally accessible area, when you will run the same for the first time then it will be turning off the Wi-Fi radio and will turn it back on and when this happened then the Wi-Fi network should re-establish its connection automatically, when you are done with the same then you will have to create a launch agent file for running this script when the system might not be having an active network connection and you can do that by opening TextEdit and then setting the new document as plain text and then copying and pasting the below text in to it: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <!DOCTYPE plist PUBLIC "-//Apple//DTD PLIST 1.0//EN" "http://www.apple.com/DTDs/PropertyList-1.0.dtd"> <plist version="1.0"> <dict> <key>Label</key> <string>local.connectairport</string> <key>ProgramArguments</key> <array> <string>/Library/Scripts/connectairport.sh</string> </array> <key>KeepAlive</key> <dict> <key>NetworkState</key> <false /> </dict> </dict> </plist>
