Macbook Pro Sleep Issues

[Marky]

Hey all,

Whether I'm connected to Wifi or by ethernet connection, whenever I close my macbook lid and put it to sleep, the connection dies as when I open it up again, I have to wait around 10-15 seconds before I'm able to use the internet again.

Is this the norm?

And if it is, is there anyway around it?

Thanks,

Marky

I've had this issue before the update - even before updating to Lion...

I got this, but only really noticed it when i got a superhub from virgin. Was using lion before that and didn't notice sleep/wifi issue

That's interesting as I am using the Superhub at the moment. I'm hoping to get my old Netgear attached to it in Modem mode soon. I wonder if that will fix the problem...
