Hi R. McCarty,

My pc's NIC is not setup with static ip, it accepts the IP given by
router which acts as DHCP server. In my router's config page, a static IP
is reserved for my pc's NIC, so it always assigns same IP to my PC.
Actually during that 20-30 second delay, command window>ipconfig shows
assigned ip and I can actually ping an internet address, but my browsers,
IE, FireFox, Opera, cannot connect or display any page.

I hope this makes sense.

Regards

Med

Systems vary in how fast they resume from Standby. Actually by
disabling the NIC's ability to enter low power mode may have the
opposite effect of what you're after. The firewall wouldn't impede
the network card/LAC from resuming.
Your post is unclear on TCP/IP configuration. Are the NICs setup
with Static IP addresses or do you rely on the router to use DHCP
for a dynamic IP address. Once a NIC is assigned an IP it should
retain that IP even after a "Sleep Mode" is entered.

Hi,

Aresuming from standby, my pc, wired to the router, takes 20-30
seconds to connect to the internet.

My PC:

Sony Vaio Laptop centrino
Win XP Pro SP2 + latest patches.
Latest driver for Intel NIC (Wired)
Latest Bios

I have tried the followings but it has no made any different. My other
two pcs connected to the same router/firewall connect immediately after
standby. My Router is DHCP and asigns static reserved IPs to each
device on my network.

Unchecked "Allow computer to turn this device off to save power" in
Device manager>Power management>Intel NIC.
Disabled software firewall on my sony laptop.


Any ideas why?


Regards


Med
