Im having quite an annoying issue where when I put my PC in sleep mode, or when I shut it down, and then turn/wake my system back up, my connection will not work at all. The only fix I’ve found is to restart my computer, then it will work normally. I have a PCIE WiFi adapter and it is the TP-Link Archer T5E. I have a Asus TUF Gaming X570 motherboard and EVGA 650 GQ PSU. Windows 10 home 2004. My ISP is xfinity and I have an Asus RT-AX56U router.
 
Does the issue end if you turn off or otherwise disable all power saving options? Just for testing and troubleshooting.

Have you tried reinstalling the Wifi network adapter drivers? Manually download, reinstall, and reconfigure.

Look in Windows 10s' Reliability History for any error codes, warnings, or informational events that you can associate with the failures to wake up /re-awake the computer.

Run "ipconfig /all" (without quotes) via the Command Prompt. Post the results.
