If the server was in “authoritative” mode, it would have immediately take charge of the request and told his android phone its now on a different network and it will be up to his phone to make dhcp discover request or to use the response it got from the authoritative server to notice what network is in and if the ip address it got previous is still active or not and if not.
The delay he is experiencing on his phone is partly due to a misconfigured dhcp server.Ī dhcp server can be configured to operate in two modes, “authoritative” and “non authoritative”. This is of course just my interpretation of his data, but I think that describes the behaviour illustrated. There is a shortcut only if you’re connecting to the last network only, and causing horrible delays otherwise. So in other words, the apple process worst-case scenario is a regular DHCP process, but it has the ability to take shortcuts if certain (probably common) criteria are met.īack to android, the worst-case is stalling for ten seconds due to timeouts before fetching a new address. An alternative bad-case is a recognized network but the address could be reassigned (there were universities having issues with this), in which case it requests a new address and any packets sent in the interim need to be resent (it may or may not cause some arp pollution issues?). Worst-case scenario for OSX is that none of the networks is recognized and it starts from scratch. It got a response for one of them, started normal operation with that address while also double-checking that it can actually reclaim that address in the background. – OS X connects, does arp queries to see if the router/dhcp server corresponds with any of the previously used (three?) addresses (192.168.2.56, 192.168.4.25, 192.168.1.29). – Android connects, assumes it is using the last address (192.168.1.17) on the last network and tries twice to continue as such (with a ~4 second timeout) before starting from scratch. I’m assuming based on the following evidence, and the fact that the situation you suggest would hopefully be obviously uneven and flawed to the fellow doing this testing. That can’t be directly determined from the information given (currently - he seems to be updating the page a bit), but to me it looks like both devices had probably previously connected to this network, it just wasn’t the last network used. If you are still having issues after ensuring your network hardware is fine, I’d move to whatever machine (server or router) is providing DHCP and look for the problem there. I can’t count the times we’ve had a kinked cable or an accidentally unplugged switch cause havok at work. I’d take a close look at the the physical and data link layers first. And if that is the case, you’re really doing something wrong to have all your Apple machines drop. Your Xserve has zero to do with your network’s DHCP unless you’re using it as the DHCP server. To be honest – the machines that most frequently drop off our network for no reason are the apple systems – despite the face we’re running an xserve as the primary server. Oh come on, you’re not even trying! Don’t you know it’s been passé for a while now to accuse Thom of being an Apple fanboy while trolling? These days you have to pick on his obsession with patents.

Will we get another update soon on how much he loves his iPad?
Yey…another “aren’t apple great’ post from Thom….this site will be Engadget v.2 before we know it

Alas, “Method to quickly reconnect to a wireless or wired network”, as well as its completely different “Method to quickly reconnect to a wireless or wired network on a mobile device” are probably patented, so Windows and Linux can’t reconnect too fast out of fear of violating a software patent. My curiosity got the better of me, and I set out to investigate how Macs are able to connect to the network so quickly, and how the network connect time in other operating systems could be improved.” Yes, I’d love to have Windows and Linux reconnect as fast as Macs do. In fact, no matter how fast I am, the network comes up before I can even try to load a web page. When I open the lid of my MacBook Pro, it connects to the network nearly instantaneously. The frustrating thing is that I know it doesn’t have to be this way. On some occasions, I have to twiddle my thumbs for as long as 10-15 seconds before the network is ready to be used. All too often, I’ll open the lid on my EeePC netbook, enter a web address, and get the dreaded ‘This webpage is not available’ message because the machine is still working on connecting to my Wi-Fi network. “One of life’s minor annoyances is having to wait on my devices to connect to the network after I wake them from sleep.
