Wireless dropout when locking workstation?

cynicl · 01-Sep-2007, 06:40 PM #1

Hey guys,

I'm currently running a Sony Vaio SZ43 notebook with Vista Business, and whenever I lock the workstation and log back in the wireless connection drops out.

My searches have only come up with a couple of mentions of the problem and no solutions except disabling fast user switching, which didn't fix the problem.

Anyone know of any solution to this problem?

Try altering the power management settings in Device Manager for the wireless NIC, untick "Allow the computer to turn off this device to save power". That's my best guess.

Already have that option turned off, and I can't find anything else in power management settings anywhere to stop it from turning off.
