Glad I found this...same problem with an ASUS n56vz...just started after having this computer for 4 years or more. I have no doubt this will fix the problem. Wondering if it "became" checked while choosing a Power Mgmt scheme. I never checked it. Kudos to Chev65...thx friend. jt
Well, WHOOPS!!...nope...not resolved. Continues to shut down basically everytime I hibernate...and other times as well. Any other thoughts?

See above...did NOT resolve the problem. What else might do that. Thx...jt
Nope...did it again. Got up in morning, go to computer...hiberating...wake it up...fine...but no wifi. And this time a program requiring a connection (netdania.com) shuts down because of no connection. Hmmmm...other ideas? Certainly easy enough to fix each time, but it's a nuisance.
PS...and another interesting thing was that a little windows popup warned there was some kind of problem with the Microsoft Virtual Wifi Mini Adapter (one of whose boxes I had unchecked...as in above post)...??
...and the story continues. I disabled the Microsoft Virt Wifi Mini Adapter (Wireless Network Connection 2), and now the wireless adapter is no longer spontaneously shutting off. But now, every time I connect a device to a usb port, it shuts off again, even just a flash drive! I can restart the wireless adapter again, and it appears to stay on (until the computer hibernates again), but what the hey? (And now I get an error message from the troubleshooter telling me the Wireless Network Connection 2 is disconnected.)
