No internet when computer wakes from sleep mode

My Windows 7 fails similarly to yours. As far as I can tell, it's a nasty bug in the OS, because Vista and XP before it would do Sleep/Standby perfectly.

With mine, it can wake up from Sleep, even after Sleeping for a few seconds and the network connection will fail either immediately, or a few minutes later. The only way to restore it is to reboot the sodding computer - no amount of fiddling with the NIC would bring it back, not even a little bit. This problem is so bad, that I cannot use Sleep mode at all. I have all the latest BIOS updates and OS patches, too. I did find that after a recent reliability update from Microsoft, it was a bit better, but still not fixed.

This problem happens on all hardware that I install 7 on, too, so it's not just 7 not liking certain hardware.

I've tried the settings you've posted and will report how the machine behaves on waking from Sleep mode.

Windows 10 - Problem waking up from sleep mode

This worked for me on a Lenovo Horizon2 27 all-in-one PC that was able to sleep manually but could not be wakened once sleeping after upgrading to Windows 10 Home.

I ran the powercfg /energy and examined the report as GoWMike describes. It showed no driver errors but suggested that there is a problem with the system's "High Performance" power setting that may prevent normal waking from manually induced sleep.

I used powercfg /list to show available modes, copied the GUID for Balanced mode, and then used this with the powercfg /activate command to change the plan.

I also used powercfg /devicequery wake_from_any

to get a list of device names for components capable of waking the system from sleep, and then I used

powercfg /deviceenablewake <devicename>

to make certain that the touchscreen and power button are armed to wake the machine.

After restarting, sleep and wake then functioned properly again.
