So I've been noticing something about my new fusion drive iMac, and I'm not sure if it's normal or not. It appears to wake/boot so fast that the NIC doesn't have a chance to catch up, so then certain applications (e.g. Steam) report they can't connect to the network. By the time I can click "retry", it's connected. Is this normal? Anyone else experience this?

The Ethernet stats in the Preferences pane report it's connecting at 1000baseT.
