Hi

I have Alienware 17 R5 i7-8750H

Whenever I leave my laptop idle for some time and try to access internet, it always doesnt work... I use wifi to connect to internet and the wifi icon on the status bar doesnt indicate that there is any issue with network connectivity, But if I open a browser and try to access any site or any app that requires internet, it responds if my system doesnt have internet connectivity...

What could be the reason for this???

Generally if I do a restart, everything goes back to normal...

thanks in advance
 
Solution
Try going to the Device manager and double click on the wifi Network adapter. Go to the Power Management tab and clear the "Allow your computer to turn off this device to save power" radial button.
