Hi,
To work from home, my laptop is attached to a docking station (targus ACP70 EU). But whenever I close the laptop (it is still running, changed it in the settings) the WLAN stops working and goes into hibernate. I googled around and tried several suggestions (e.g. change the battery settings), but the problem isn't solved yet. Does anyone have an idea? Currently I just leave the laptop open 😊
I have the original hardware in the laptop.
Solved! Go to Solution.

Hello there, please try the following step-
go to Device Manager ->Expand Network adapters and right click on the wireless network card and select Properties.
Now Go to the Power Management tab. Make sure the box is unchecked for 'Allow the computer to turn off this device to save power' and click OK.
Hope this works. Thanks.
