Windows 10: Windows 11 Wifi is taking long time to reconnect after waking from sleep or restarting

When I had Windows 10 the wifi used to connect very quickly however since the update to Windows 11 I have had multiple errors. One of it was around the reconnection to Wifi has become too slow. I have to do it manually since it takes around 5 - 10 mins after waking from sleep to reconnect to WIFI

WiFi Cuts Out on Win10--Have to Put Laptop to Sleep to Reconnect!

My ASUS X540S with Windows 10 will connect to my home WiFi fine for about 20 minutes, but will then suddenly disconnect. The name of the home WiFi will still be listed as secure, but when I try to connect to it, I get the message
"Can't connect to this network." The only way to successfully reconnect is to put the laptop to sleep and then wake it up, which is time consuming and frustrating. This problem is exacerbated by temperature change and planes flying
overhead, but I know the problem isn't the WiFi/router because my smartphone is connected to it and experiences little to no interruptions. Any suggestions? Thank you for taking time out to help, it is greatly appreciated!

 

After wake from sleep - wifi won't reconnect

After waking from sleep, my Lenovo Carbon X1 (6th gen) often shows failed wifi connection or similar in the status. I need to manually disconnect it then reconnect and it will work again. Even if I click the 'reconnect automatically' setting or whatever
it is called it won't work.

Preliminary research seems to show that changing the power setting for the WiFi adapter via either

A) device mgr - wifi network adapter - properties - power settings tab or

B) using the power setting control panel then going to advanced and looking for the wifi adapter there

will fix it.

... but... I don't have either of those tabs available to me.

Some have said that laptops with AOAC (always on always connected) won't show these options.

How can I get my wifi to reconnect automatically when waking from sleep?

 

Computer takes time to wake up from sleep

Hi Tanay,



Thank you for writing to Microsoft Community Forums.



I understand that the laptop takes time to wake up the screen after waking up from sleep mode.



Ideally, if there are multiple processes running in the background the computer will take some time to wake up from sleep. However, you may want to try changing few settings on the computer and see if that helps. Refer the steps mentioned below:

1. Press Windows + R, to open
   Run dialog box.
   
2. Type control and click on
   OK.
   
3. Select Large icons from the drop down for
   View by.
   
4. Click on Power Options.
   
5. Click on Choose what the power buttons do, and click
   Change settings that are currently unavailable.
   
6. Select the checkbox for Turn on fast startup.
   
7. Click Save changes
