Orbi RBR750 automatically going offline?
I have found when I wake my computer in the morning that it will say "internet connection restored" The forums at microsoft seem to think maybe there is some setting on the router making it sleep. I ...
It's not the message that's annoying. It's just the fact why would it disconnect. The only thing I can do on the wifi adapter in power save is to make it low power saving. There is no disabling it. Apparently there used to be and they got rid of the setting. I'm not one to mess around too much with settings cause do one thing then you mess up 5 other things.
Do you see this option at all?
Yeah I looked around and found that. I'm guessing maybe if I turn it off then it won't disconnect the PC. All my other devices no issues cause I can watch TV just fine so I know that the router isn't disconnecting other things. Those are all wifi signal connected anyways thru the Satellite.

I think what we are saying is that the router is not disconnecting the PC, either. The PC has decided to drop the network connection while asleep and reconnect when it wakes up. If the PC never goes to sleep, then this problem goes away.
From doing a search for those exact terms "internet connection restored" It possibly is a facebook thing. Why it would have that message pop up like it's coming from the taskbar of the PC I have no idea. Other people have noticed it to and no clue how that comes about. Must be seeing when someone is active and tracking it? Who knows?
