XP goes on standby and on "wake up" I have lost my connection..why?

[Guest Joe]

My machine running XP Pro SP3 is set to go on standby S3 after about

15 minutes.

 

Usually I can wake it up with no trouble, but lately it seems upon

that wake up call I have lost my internet connection. For years this

machine was fine configured like I mentioned and it never failed to

maintaint the connection. What's gone wrong now?

 

Thank you all,

 

Joe

Kudos for posting your full Windows version! You've save all of us a lot of

time. See...

 

A Windows XP SP3-based computer loses wireless connectivity when it resumes

from standby or from hibernation, or you receive an error message when you

try to put the computer in standby or in hibernation:

Hi PABear,

 

I should have told you that I have a cable connection to my

machine,thats the one that loses the connection. The other machine is

in another room and that one is wireless and that seems fine.

 

The KB article seems to address only wireless connections. Sorry I

didn't tell you guys that to start with.

Whether it's wireless or not, the solution can be the same; don't allow

[the NIC, Ethernet card, USB port, whatever connects the computer to the

modem/router] to be turned off while in Standby mode.
