| Wireless Connection Disabled after Sleep Mode! Morning All, I have a P5K-E WiFi and when my computer wakes up from sleep my wifi is disabled. I have to reboot my computer to get it back. What would be another way of getting my wifi back without rebooting? Thanks fvlmasl2

| Re: Wireless Connection Disabled after Sleep Mode! I don't know about Vista, but with XP you simply have to open network connections (either via the Windows Control Panel, or by right-clicking the network icon in the systray at the lower right of the screen, if the icon is enabled), right click on the wireless connection icon, and select "enable." Regards, -- Al

| Re: Wireless Connection Disabled after Sleep Mode! Need to go into the properties for the network card and uncheck the box to disable device in sleep mode.

| Re: Wireless Connection Disabled after Sleep Mode! When the pc wakes up the wireless is enabled but the icon has an X through it. I did not see any setting related to sleep mode. Thanks

| Re: Wireless Connection Disabled after Sleep Mode! Why are you putting a desktop to sleep in the first place? Windows is notorious for messing up wireless when coming out of sleep. Try using hibernate, if you really must. |
