<li>Control Panel&gt;Network and Internet&gt;Network Connections</li>

<li>Click the Configure button</li>
<li>Go to the Power Management tab</li>
<li>Unselect (remove check mark) from &quot;Allow the computer to turn off this device to save power&quot;.</li>

Hi all,<br />
<br />
&nbsp;<br />
<br />
I have an X200 Tablet--brand new. The wireless however, keeps turning itself off. I keep having to press fn -&gt; f5 and turn it back on. I thought it might be turning off due to a power setting so set 'Wireless adapter settings, power saving mode' to 'maximum performance' in lenovo's power manager. I also have unticked 'allow the computer to turn off this device to save power' in the wireless adapters properties -&gt; config. Neither of these have helped, does anyone have an suggestions?<br />

Cheers,<br />

X200 thinkpad tablet -- wireless adapter keeps turning off

A laptop or notebook is a portable personal computer with a clamshell form factor, suitable for mobile use. Although originally there was a distinction between laptops and notebooks, the former being bigger and heavier than the latter, there is often no longer any difference. Laptops are commonly used in a variety of settings, such as at work, in education, and for personal multimedia. A laptop combines the components, inputs, outputs and capabilities of a desktop computer, including the display screen, speakers, a keyboard, and pointing devices (such as a touchpad or trackpad) into a single unit. The device can be powered either from a rechargeable battery or by mains electricity from an AC adapter.

Wireless networking is a method by which homes, telecommunications networks and enterprise (business) installations avoid the costly process of introducing cables into a building, or as a connection between various equipment locations. Wireless telecommunications networks are generally implemented and administered using radio communication. This implementation takes place at the physical level (layer) of the OSI model network structure. The key hardware components of a wireless computer network include adapters, routers and access points, antennas and repeaters.

Wireless Hardware

Windows 7 is an operating system from Microsoft. Features include multi-touch support, a redesigned Windows Shell with a new taskbar, referred to as the Superbar, a home networking system called HomeGroup, and performance improvements.
