If I open safari side by side with chrome for example, chrome will instantly boot up and have internet connection. Safari delays about 20s before getting connectivity. What I've noticed, is any application (my teams application connecting to a meeting for example) has the same issue, so don't think it is just safari.
There is some apple service in the background that is taking a while to spool up and I can't figure out how to troubleshoot this. All third party applications work as expected. The App Store for example has a long load screen before loading just like safari.
What service are these native applications using that could cause this that a third party application like chrome would not use?
To trouble shoot further you can:
—A SafeBoot Start up your Mac in safe mode - Apple Support will sort many anomalies
Does a quick disk repair before it fully boots up, and certain system caches get cleared and rebuilt, third party system modifications and system accelerations are disabled temporarily.
Login and test. Reboot as normal and test. Caches get rebuilt automatically.
This test will tell you if third party interference; most extensions etc are not loaded in safe boot mode.
—Test issue in another user (or guest user) account Change Users & Groups settings on Mac - Apple Support
This will tell you if it a universal issue or isolated to your user/admin account.
***wireless keyboard with rechargeable batteries— connect the charging cable, this will make the wired keyboard successful Safe Boot your Mac.
unplug all non-essential peripherals when testing
Uninstall all third party apps that are Cleaners/Optimizers/VPN/Anti-Virus
all known to cause issues on the macOS
