I could not find a way to disconnect my network. This is what my screen shows: What do I do next? Aug 30, AM. Wifi says it is connected and the diagnostics show that it is working fine but the status indicator drop down says it is "Looking for Networks" every 5 seconds.
Trying to work remotely is a nightmare since I was constantly being tossed out. It was not my router, since my iPad has no problem connecting and staying connected. This had nothing to do with waking from sleep, since it occurs after a hard reboot. Turning bluetooth off had no impact. I finally found a fix on another thread thank you LindsayfromLondon that seems to be working. Sep 14, PM. Have you made a new Location, and tried different setup information, to see if there is a problem with the first Location?
How about a different user account, to see if that connects to the internet; if so, the issue may be in the main user account you most often boot into. Sometimes the issue may be worked around in base station wireless router settings, or a reboot of the base. Is there any other similar neighorhood base station using the same channel number nearby that you've chosen to set yours to? How about a microwave oven, a microwave communications tower, or a cordless phone that shares a frequency the base station prefers?
Interference can be a cause of odd issues, too. Your computer likely is new enough to get some help at an Apple Store, with a Genius appointment. Jan 17, AM. My problem happens in different locations, so I think it is happening because of my computer's setup.
Apr 21, PM. Apr 27, AM. I don't know if it was turning off the bluetooth or just removing the "wi-fi status" from my bar but doing that finally allowed me to connect to wifi and actually load something online without the "searching for wifi This was happening in different physical locations so I knew it was laptop related. So glad I can use my stinkin' macbook pro again!!!
You rock -- thanks for sharing your hard-found knowledge compliments of our London friend! Sep 11, AM. Page content loaded.
I often have to do this several times a day. Just turn them off, wait 10 seconds and turn back on. Wait for a new connection. Jan 15, PM. That doesn't seem to help. I just get Network Diagnostics: Your Internet connection appears to be working correctly. Jan 16, PM. Wireless Connection Problems - Fix. Wireless Connection Problems - Fix 2. Wireless Connection Problems - Fix 3.
I had one other refurbished Macbook that had a display issue - it was returned, and they gave me this Macbook as a replacement, as well as upgraded the memory for me at no cost. The 1st unit didn't have the wifi issue, however, this second one does. The only known difference is the first unit was 2.
Both were I7. Both are Early models. That would depend on whether it's on the system board, or if it's a daughter card. In summary the Bluetooth service has priority over the Wifi service, hence if Bluetooth is running your Wifi takes a backseat until Bluetooth has completed it's search for devices after waking up.
One of the improvements is to curate your list of saved Wifi networks and also prioritize them in the list. The less there are the quicker your Wifi will reconnect. Disable Bluetooth and if your Wifi connects immediately after waking up, you know this is the source of the issue without having to tear-down the Notebook.
Not exactly an easy replacement. It looks like you have to get the entire LCD panel off before you can access the card. There's also no guarantee that replacement would fix the issue either.
The ifixit. Good site to be aware of! Due to what I found online, that's exactly what I did. I'll do more testing, but so far, so good. However, when I click on wifi status, I still see 'Looking for Networks" every 5 seconds or so The workaround of turning of the status display, then turning it back on does fix it temporarily. This probably come from the boot media I suppose.
Sorry - new Mac user I just wonder if this issue would be resolved when Yosemite is released. I still really like the MacBook as I get used to it. Side Note: Since I still need to use Windows for some things, I'll probably pick up a copy of Parallels 10 this weekend. I hope the problem is rectified in Parallels is great provided you have enough RAM. When I returned the first unit due to the display issue, they gave me this issue and had upgraded the ram to 8gb.
Typical of most modern OS's, the more memory the better the performance. Don't forget there's also Wifi network priority as per my OP. That will also impact the connection performance during wake-up. I had this issue a couple weeks ago when I installed Mavericks on my ladys Mac. Whether you connect to these networks with your Mac, iPhone, or iPad, miraculously, your devices will remember these networks and sync them via iCloud — so your other Apple products can access them too, if you use iCloud Keychain.
You can cull these Wi-Fi networks, but you can only really clean them out on a Mac. You can remove wi-fi networks on an iPhone or an iPad, but only if you are near enough to those networks for your device to detect them.
Tap the i button next to a network that you have previously joined, then tap Forget this Network. The device will remove that network. If you want to remove all saved wi-fi networks on your iOS device, there is a nuclear option. However, this does not carry over to iCloud Keychain if you are using it, and the only way to fully delete these saved networks is on a Mac.
There are two ways you can view and remove saved Wi-Fi networks on a Mac. To do this, open System Preferences, and then click Network. Select Wi-Fi in the sidebar, and then click Advanced.
