Switch off your iPhone's wifi connection so G3 or G4 is active and turn on personal hotspot. Connect your iPhone with a usb cable with your computer and check in System Preferences -> Network if you're connected to internet via usb with iPhone. Start delivering your app with Application Loader program on your computer via your iPhone's internet connection. And yes you will cross the “Sending API usage to iTunes Connect” barrier and you will be able to upload the package to the iPhone store. At least I was!

Answer 3

If your Mac is has both a WiFi and an Ethernet connection, try turning off WiFi. That solved the problem for me (this time anyway).
