Since a few weeks it seems that my laptop, after being locked for a few minutes, will kill the network connection. Every time I return to my it after it being locked for a while, I see apps having to reconnect, or tasks that have failed because lack of network connectivity. It happens on both wired and wireless connections.
Is there a way to disable this behavior? I've looked in Windows power settings, and NIC settings, but haven't found anything.
I'm working on a Surface Pro 3 with Windows 10 version 1703 build 15063.413
How long have you been away from the device? Could it be that it switches to standby/hibernation? – Seth – 2017-07-06T11:35:26.053
1Have you checked wireless network Adapter in power setting. You can also find the setting related to your issue in Wireless or Ethernet Adapter Configurations. i.e Power Management – Chandra Sekhar – 2017-07-06T13:11:25.660
Standby/hibernation is set to 'Never'. Also the setting to disconnect network when in standby is set to 'Never' – CJ Scholten – 2017-07-06T19:02:36.437
