Wireless Internet disconnects when i close laptop lid Hi, I have Lenovo B570 with windows7 installed. To avoid internet disconnection problem, I changed settings in Control Panel as follows:
In Power Options, then in advance settings I selected options "Do Nothing" When laptop lid closes...
It resolves my problem partially... After closing the lid if system does not get lock then internet connection works fine but if system goes to lock state (this happens when lid closed time is more than 20 mins) then after login, the internet connection is visible as disconnected.
Any suggestions?

Are your drivers updated to the newest one avaible ??
Also you can try disabling this:

Device Manager > select your Network driver > and do what you see in the picture (but ! disable it) | My System Specs | | System Manufacturer/Model Number Dell Dimension 5000 OS Windows 7 Ultimate (x86) Laptop: x64 Home Premium 7 CPU Intel Pentium 4 HT @3GHz Motherboard Dell Memory 2GB DDR2 Kingston Graphics Card Ati Radeon x300se (128mb) Sound Card Creative Monitor(s) Displays Delium Monitor Screen Resolution 1360 x 768 Keyboard Logitech Mouse Logitech wireless mouse M 505 Hard Drives C: (320gb) Internet Speed 50MBPS Other Info I'm still running an old computer because my laptop died (half)
So i'll have to wait till I have more money to buy a new system :) |

thanks. Well for the first problem re-read my first post (I edited it)
for the second problem I would try this:
- Let the battery go to 0% so save your work (because it will shut down)
- and try then to plug in your AC Adapter and see if it charges or not. (if it doesn't charges then maybe your AC Adapter broke down (so to test that you can try to pull out the battery and power on the laptop without the battery and with the AC Adapter if that doesn't work than you have a bad AC Adapter or there is something wrong with the laptop it self) | My System Specs | | System Manufacturer/Model Number Dell Dimension 5000 OS Windows 7 Ultimate (x86) Laptop: x64 Home Premium 7 CPU Intel Pentium 4 HT @3GHz Motherboard Dell Memory 2GB DDR2 Kingston Graphics Card Ati Radeon x300se (128mb) Sound Card Creative Monitor(s) Displays Delium Monitor Screen Resolution 1360 x 768 Keyboard Logitech Mouse Logitech wireless mouse M 505 Hard Drives C: (320gb) Internet Speed 50MBPS Other Info I'm still running an old computer because my laptop died (half)

Hi azeem12, welcome to 7F, and Happy New Year!
I would advise not to take your battery down to 0%. Quote: Caution should be exercised not to discharge a lithium-based battery too low. Discharging a lithium-based battery below 2.5V may cut off the battery’s protection circuit. Not all chargers accommodate a recharge on batteries that have gone to sleep because of low voltage.
Source: Chapter 5: Discharge Methods 2.5v on a 4400mah battery equals 5.68%, so anywhere between 5, and 10% would be okay.

Thanks Anak for giving useful precaution.
I resolved battery charging problem from this link: Plugged in, not charging Windows 7 solution : Jeffrey Palermo (.com)
Now battery is charging. But i am little worried that why this problem occurred? Do anyone have any idea about reason of charging problem???
After performing steps in above mentioned is there any guarantee that this problem will never rise again???
One more thing, is it necessary to disconnect AC Power once battery fully recharged?
Please reply to all questions, i ll appreciate. | My System Specs | | System Manufacturer/Model Number Lenovo Essential B570 OS Windows 7 Ultimate N 64-bit (6.1, Build 7600) CPU Intel® Core™ i3, i3-2310M, 2.10Ghz, 64-Bit Memory 3GB RAM DDR3 Hard Drives 500GB SATA Super Multi Drive, 7200rmp |

It is a power managment for batteries device driver problem.

The battery management program problem you solved by re-installing the driver should be smart enough to determine that the battery is sufficiently charged, and shut itself off until it is need for the next charge, but why take the chance. You do not want to overcharge a battery either.
A normal Li-on charger/battery should not get warm at any point in the charging/idle mode. If it does it is defective. | My System Specs | | System Manufacturer/Model Number Gateway DX4831e OS Win 7 Home Premium 64bit Ver 6.1.7600 Build 7601 - SP1 CPU Intel i3 530 2.93GHz, 2933MHz 2 Cores 4 Logical Processors Motherboard Gateway H57M01 133 megahertz Memory 6GB of 1,333MHz DDR3 SDRAM Graphics Card 32MB Intel Graphics Media Accelerator HD IGChip Sound Card Realtek High Definition Audio Monitor(s) Displays Gateway HX2000 20inch TFT active matrix TN Screen Resolution 1600 x 900 x 59 hertz Keyboard MS 'Natural' Standard PS/2 Enhanced 101-102 Key Mouse Gateway USB wired optical PSU Knowing Gateway it is probably just a 300watter.

Thank you for detailed response.
