I was just wondering if there was a setting on your computer that would turn yr ethernet connector on yr motherboard off after standby? What motherboard do you have?

All I can think of is don't put your PC into standby mode! Standby mode is bad for yr HDD or other hardware anyway! Unfortunatley I don't know what the problem is so unless one of the other guys, or gals (don't wanna be sexist) can help I dunno!
