When i wake my 2.4 Ghz aluminum MacBook with 4GB ram from sleep it takes the AirPort about 10 minutes to connect to the internet. The status is that the AirPort is connected but there is no internet coming through. What could be making my MacBook take so long to connect to the internet?

Click on the Airport icon in the Menu Bar. Open Network Preferences. In the Preferences window that opens, click the Advanced button. Go to the Airport tab, and make sure the checkbox next to the line "Disconnect from wireless networks when logging out". That's the only thing I can think of. Hope that helps, though!

Thanks for the input, but that option is not enabled. It still takes about 10 minutes to connect to the internet, when i startup or wake the computer.
