vista 32 bit
 
 

I lose internet connection when I resume from sleep mode

Hi

I've searched here for this problem, and it seems that others have had it as well.

I just got a new PC and it's running Vista. Each time I put it into sleep mode, when I come back, I have no wireless internet. I can either reboot or unplug the wireless receiver, either work, but it's a pain

Repair/diagnose does NOT work

For what it's worth, I had another PC, less than a year old, and it does the exact same thing. I just assumed that the old one was just wierd and my solution was to not put it into sleep.

We do have a hard wired one, it does NOT lose connection when in sleep mode. My internet comes back just fine upon unplugging the receiver/replugging it.

I have tried the solution I found..by unchecking the 'allow the system to put this device to sleep'..that did not work

I don't know what other info you need.

Oh, and the PC's are pretty DISSIMILAR in what they have on them for hardware, which leads me to believe it's a Vista thing. They don't even have the same spyware stuff..

any suggestions are welcome

Thanks!
