Since you mention that this was not the case when you first got your system; you might want to check also with your laptop manufacturer since they may have specific power settings for that hardware to achieve this.</P><P>If you lose internet connectivity while the system is not sleeping or hibernating, then you could test setting your systems power management to maximum performance, some laptops may have some hardware sleep after certain time of usage or idle.</P> Mon, 09 Apr 2012 20:41:40 GMT https://community.intel.com/t5/Wireless/Intel-R-WiFi-Link-1000-BGN-Disconnects/m-p/206584#M1667 idata 2012-04-09T20:41:40Z
