2011 MBP Network issue

[Gavin.]

Its a bit of odd one. At least once a day I have no network activity when my MBP has awoken from sleep. I have to put it to sleep again then wake it to work. It says I am connected to the router but will not send or receive any packets. Has anyone had this before?

Yep mine does this ALL the time. Sometimes 5 times in one day. It says im connected but with no internet. I have to turn wifi off and on for it to work.. My MBP is the same year as yours and im using 30mb Virgin Media super hub.

Known issue by apple I think.

Mine use to do this but I cant remember what I did to fix it, sorry.

It may have been via an update to my MacBook.

At least its not just me, I have only really noticed it doing it the last dew days.

If you could remember that would be just awesome... Thank you

I remember having issues when my MBP was on Snow Leopard and I fixed it (again could have been via an update), thinking about it I dont think I have had any issues whilst I have been on Lion!

Lol I've only had issues since "upgrading" to Lion..

Oh dear lol.

Have you had a look at what people are saying on Mac Rumors?

Too lazy for that TBH. Really want to blame the shitty Virgin Super Hub as supposed to Steve. It can't be his fault....

It may be router related but then again it could be an issue with the AirPort.

not a MBP I know but my iMac has had this issue from new. They told me to unplug in overnight so it does something.....god knows what I was just doing as they said. It actually behaved for a week or so but is doing it again now.

Am phoning local Apple place this morning to get it booked in, I want it looked at and Airport card thing changed out.

I've come across this a few times at work now and each time the AirPort card has been changed and the problem has solved.

We even had one that caused every access point it connected to trip out :S.
