    I can't seem to figure out why my 5100AGN will not connect after an extended period of time being in the sleep mode. If I run a test it says my Network Adapter is not plugged in. If I do a restart it connects correctly. I have the box unchecked that wants me to allow the adapter to go in power save mode while in sleep, so I know it's not that.

    Any advice?

    Do you have windoze running it or it's own program? If it's windoze... you may want to switch to an aftermarket controller that supports it. Just a thought.

    I was using Intel Proset, but I have better, stronger, faster speeds with Windoze. Which does not make sense in my opinion. Under Advance Options in the 5100 adapter there are some settings that I don't fully understand or know which ones to select. I guess I just need to play around with it.
