Delayed access to internet – Solved!
When I log in to my MacBook after being in sleep mode it takes approximately one minute to connect to the internet even though the wifi connection is on. This started to happen a couple of months ago.

Is it an older MacBook? It looks like at some point this was a known bug, as there are lots of threads and articles about this issue online.

This delay seems to be happening for all my devices, MacBooks, iPhones, samsung tablet. I’m wondering if it has something to do with my wifi cable router.

Since it is happening on all the devices, it would have to be something they all have in common like the modem/router. Do you have any custom settings on there? Is it one your ISP provided? You can log in and take a look at the settings, I would reach out to your ISP if you have had your model for a while. They need to upgrade them everyone in a while to ensure they work well with the current service.

Solved my delay problem by purchasing and installing an ASUS RT-AX3000 router. This replaced the router provided by Spectrum.
