My internet connection is gone every time I wake the machine from sleep with
the following error in the event log... worked fine in SP1... no
hardware/software changes... no driver updates for the network adapter are
available... it's on a netgear router which I presume is the device sending
the "DHCPNACK message"

Ideas anyone ??????????????

Hi
Try to disable the Power Saving of the Wireless card.

Thank you Jack... it's not "wireless"... this is hard-wired to the NIC port
on my EVGA 680i Motherboard... and if you mean set "Allow the computer to
turn of this device to save power" setting on the NIC adapter... been there,
done that... no joy... i reinstalled the NIC drivers... that didn't help...
i did a system restore... that didn't help... i have NOT reversed the
installation of SP2, but I suppose that's the next step... not something I
really want to do... any other ideas ???
 
Hi
Look also in the Drivers section of the Card's configuration, there might be
an entry there concerning WakeUp.
Jack (MS, MVP-Networking)
 
Thanks again, and yes... "Wake on Lan" is a feature of the NIC... but I was
always under the impression that was for use if you were in an environment
where the network admin wanted to wake or poll your system so they could
perform admin tasks, etc... This is a home system and "wake on lan" is
disabled in my bios, more or less because I don't to open that door... in
addition, I've seen threads saying that if it is set that way, Vista won't
stay asleep... I'm starting to think this is a SP2 bug or that the SP1 NIC
drivers aren't compatible...

Other thoughts ?
 
Hi
You are right about Wake On LAN (WOL). Proper WOL assumes that a computer is
Off, and suppose to boot it up upon getting a Magic Packet.
However take a close look, many NICs these day use the same term referring
to what you might call Wake On any Traffic.
I.e. waking the computer if another computer on the Network is trying to
connect to it.

Click to expand...

Try updating the network driver. It's one of the common bug fixes to resume
after coming back from sleep mode.

What DHCP server are you using? Is it a router or ICS?
 
Thanks Tae... my netgear router is the DHCP and it's firmware is current, as
are my NIC drivers... I did find a thread suggesting unbinding IPv6 on the
NIC and that seems to have stopped these DHCP problems... so ultimately it
looks like the ongoing legacy of Vista... device driver compatibility is
poorly tested and carelessly implemented...

Again thanks... M
