I am very happy with my Hackintosh, except for this network issue.

After waking from sleep, some websites load fine while others I cannot even ping from terminal. The strange thing is that it affects all the devices connected to my WiFi.

I have searched and disabled "Wake for WiFi Access" under Power Saving, but still have the issue.

I believe it is my Hackintosh taking the network down but I am happy to try any diagnostics.

Further information for my setup: I am using sys profile 17,1. Handoff and imessage work. I am also using the FakePCII_Broadcom_WiFi.kext, FakePCIID.kext, BrcmPatchRAM2.kext and BrcmFrimwareRepo.kext by @RehabMan

I can give anymore relevant information if you let me know whats needed.

Not sure where to head with this. Any help is appreciated.

Would this cause an issue with all my WiFi devices though?

I may of stumbled upon the issue. I was having reboot on shutdown issues too. When I installed my GPU last weekend, I disabled the LAN controller in BIOS completely. That did not have the same affect as disable wake on LAN. Reenabling the LAN controller and disabling wake on LAN fixed the reboot automatically issue so hopefully it solves this issue too.

Amazingly it looks like disabling the LAN controller instead of just deactivating disable wake on LAN was the issue. The computer was sleeping all day while I was at work and there are no problems so far. Will update if that changes.

So strange that it could take down the WiFi for all my devices.
