    Internet disconnects every time PC comes out of sleep or is idle


    Hello, I've noticed that every time my laptop is idle for several minutes goes to screen saver or sleep, once I sign back into my profile, my internet connection will show "Connected, No Internet". It doesn't seem to matter what wifi signal I am connected to. This does not occur if I simply tell the computer to "sleep" and then sign back on immediately. There's usually some amount of time that has passed with the computer being idle that causes the problem to occur. When there has been some idle time, the problem will reliably always occur. When it happens, typically the solution that works is to manually disconnect and then connect again. Then the network will show "Connected, secured" and work normally. About one in every five times, however, this still doesn't fix the problem. Then I will try to forget the network and reconnect to it using the correct security key sometimes this works. If this still does not fix the problem, I've found that if I hot spot with my phone to give me an alternative network to connect to, then it will finally connect to a network. Then I can disconnect from the hot spot and reconnect with the original network which will function normally.

    :)

    Bluetooth still on while idle

    Thanks for following the steps. Now, the settings won't take effect if you are only using normal PC idle mode. Normal functionality of Bluetooth and Wi-Fi settings are to stay connected even if PC is idle. With the settings that you have created, we would
    suggest that you set your PC to automatically go to Sleep or
    Hibernate
    once idle. In this way, the settings "Allow the computer to turn off this device to save power" should take effect.

    To set your PC to automatically go to Sleep or Hibernate when idle, please follow these steps:

    • Open Control Panel, set view by: Small
      icons.
    • Look for Power Options.
    • Click on Change when the computer sleeps on the left pane.
    • Set a timer.

    Please try it out. Hope it helps. If you have any other concerns, don't hesitate to come back to us.

  3. My pc is going to sleep after 5 minutes of inactivity

    Hi Sebastian,

    Your PC might be set to sleep once it is idle for 5mins. For you to adjust this setting, we suggest looking into the
    Power Options advanced settings. Follow these steps:

    • Open Control Panel and click on Power Options.
    • On your Preferred plans, click Change plan settings.
    • Click Change advanced power settings.
    • Expand Sleep and System unattended sleep timeout.
    • Set how many minutes you want your system to be left idle before it goes to sleep.

    Let us know how it turns out.

    Regards.

    Internet disconnects when computer sleeps

    Windows 10 - every time, and I mean every time, my computer goes into sleep mode I lose my internet connection. The icon shows as being connected but at a low speed and I cannot connect when I open a new browser window. I need to disconnect and then reconnect
    and it works just fine. This has only started to happen since I upgraded to windows 10, it never happened previously. This occurs also whenever I reboot or shut down.

    Nothing negative has occurred as a result, at least not has far as I can tell, but it's a real pain to have to go through the steps whenever I come back to the computer.
