Re: Nighthawk C7000v2 goes to sleep when my computer does

Currently when my computer goes to sleep my nighthawk also goes to sleep. I need to know how to turn this off. I've looked at every setting in the config and can't find it. I searched for "standby" and "sleep" in the user manual with zero results. I'm not sure why this would be a setting that is enabled by default. Who only uses their computer with a WIFI router? So at night when I put my computer to sleep when I'm ready to go to sleep my entire network dies, including all smart home devices connected to it. Did they really think I want to kill my smart home when I go to bed? Obviously I'm frustrated and think this is really poorly thought out design.

So I'm the first to admit when I'm wrong and this is the case. I need to apologize to netgear and the posters here. I discovered this is a featuer of my UPS, which in that case actually makes sense. I reconfigured what was plugged into each socket on the ups and now when my computer goes to sleep my network does not go down. Again my apologies to anyone I was n ahole to.

I dont think C7000 has a sleep feature. It might be something else going in your network.
I am not aware of any DOCSIS 3.0 modems from any OEMs with a sleep feature.

I am sorry but this is incorrect, there is definitely a sleep feature engaging. I am posting a video proving this. I have made zero modifications to the modem/router, yet this happens every single time as soon as I put my computer to sleep. Below is the link to the video showing this.
