Network map is ok prior to pc sleep. After sleep map shows a ? mark and wireless pc shows as wired. Disable/reenable network adapter restores correct map until next sleep. See attachments. Can this be fixed?
If you do a search around these forums, you'll find a lot of issues relating to Windows 7 and sleep mode. I would personally suggest simply shutting the machine down and powering it back on, rather than putting it to sleep.
I never turn it off, it goes to sleep on its own and I'd like to keep it that way.
I just thought there would be a fix. It's not a big issue but bugs bug me.
For the general health of the machine, I would suggest turning it off from time to time, for extended periods of time (i.e: before you go to bed). In the long run, it's a lot easier on the hardware of the machine than leaving it continually running.
However, I'm afraid that, to the best of my knowledge there's no real solution to your predicament.
Thanks, I'll keep looking.
