Windows 10: Network issues after sleepmode

Hi there,I have been using my Lenovo IdeaPad 5 for about two months now, with windows 11 running. However, everytime I 'lock' or 'Sleep' my laptop, I experience network issues upon unlocking/sleeping. The network icon on the bottom right doesn't show my laptop is connected, although it does say I am connected when looking in settings. Some webpages do load, but apps like Spotify and Whatsapp do not. The only solution I keep finding is a network reset + reboot, but to do this everytime after locking my laptop or having it in sleepmode even accidentally is a real pain to me. Please help...

:)

 

Disable updates in sleepmode

It's not automatically downloading thats annoying me so much as it decides to update while my PC is in sleepmode, i don't see how that helps me sorry. I've seen some people say disable it in task scheduler but it won't let me do that despite using the pro
version.
