Network connection out our off during periods of inactivity, loss of internet connection

Vista prem 64 houses a dell studio xps 435mt, methinks periodicly lose my internet connection.  This is is produced several times during a download of 200-song itunes where pops up a message saying download failed to expire my network connection.  I also noticed that I have initially no network connection when I use my computer after a period of inactivity.  the network in my tray icon will have a red x through it to a connection restored after that I "wake up" my computer with the mouse.  It's particularly frustrating during downloads large/long because they get sometimes completely removed.  my power management is set to 'performance' and my monitor is the only thing that stops after inactivity.  everything else is set to always run.

my computer is connected to a satellite modem (wild blue) through a linksys wrt54g wireless router.  the firmware on my router, as well as the driver for my network card ARE up-to-date.

I read on the network cards with power management options where you can uncheck a box to disable the ability of the computer to reduce power to the / network card.  When I go to the tab power management on the config of my network card, so I have not this box...

someone knows what could happen?

Hi oakono,

Here is a screenshot of what David is trying to show you.  Please make sure you on the same page.  Also check more on Lan box to avoid that the computer goes into sleep or Hibernate mode when you still download.

    HI - sorry for the thread title wave and the "pix on the side", but I'm having a problem with my VMWare Virtual Windows Machine on my MacBook Pro with Os X (10.10.2):

    I use my Virtual Machine to run a Windows "Poker Clock. Essentially this countsdown asks the minutes as the poker tournament runs. The tournament can last over 6 hours ago there is no user activity. All screensavers are disabled.

    During execution of my Virtual Machine from Windows (using VMWare Fusion 7) 8.1 and the aforementioned Poker clock, I get the following message appears on the first 30 minutes. Apparetnly something trying to stop my MacBook while the software is running. I can't find which program is loaded and I was wondering is there something inherent in VMWare who wants to shut down my computer after a long period of inactivity:

    I first thought that it had to do with settings of power/energy on the side Mac, or perhaps on the side of Windows, but as you can see on these pictures below, I think that I have disabled all the parameters that would be would like to shut down my computer while "no operator" and yet the previous pop up keeps appearing. It becomes a real hassel and I can't seem to find out how to stop it from appearing.  Moreover, there is no other applications running or updates pending that would re - start my MacBook.

    I hope someone can help me with this!

    Thank you.

    It seems that your Mac is set to save accounts after 30 minutes of inactivity. Who would try to stop the VMware Fusion as part of disconnection and generates messages that you see.

    You can check this by opening the security & privacy preference pane in system preferences. On the general tab, log in as administrator by clicking on the padlock at the bottom of the Panel, and then click Advanced at the bottom of the Panel.

    See if the checkbox next to "Log out after xxx minutes of inactivity" is checked. If this is the case, you can uncheck to stop the automatic disconnection. Or you can change it to a longer value (but if you don't have a good idea of how long the game disable the auto disconnect may be the best choice).

  • I can't access the itunes store. It telling me that my network connection has timed out or my network settings are not correct.

    Original title: problems with itunes

    I have recently purchsed an ipod and downloaded the itunes program.  Everything seems to work fine except or the fact that I can not access the itunes store, so have created new problems.  It telling me that my network connection has timed out or my network settings are not correct.  What settings should I have on, how can I make this work?

    Hello

    The reason for not being able to connect to the iTunes store may be due to the "hosts file" blocking the iTunes Store, or it can also be caused by security software, most likely, it might be Norton Firewall.
    Step 1:

    Note: Please make sure that you enable the antivirus/firewall software after the test to keep your computer protected.

  • "We could not complete your iTunes Store request. The network connection timed out. »

    Every hour or two iTunes for Mac displays a modal dialog box with the error 'we could not complete your iTunes Store request. The network connection timed out. "This interrupts any activity like playing airplay or order with the Remote App on iOS.

    I can identify no problems of networks. If I go to the iTunes Store deliberately I have no problem. I have no download waiting on the iTunes store. I try not to buy anything from the iTunes Store. I have no reason to connect to the iTunes Store.

    There is no update unapplied for iTunes. There is no update unapplied for Mac OS X. There is no update unapplied for my router. There is no network connection problem to any site I found.

    I can't find all the messages that allow me to debug this problem. The support page to If you can not connect to the iTunes Store - Apple supported provides no useful information.

    What this error message should tell me? What problem I actually feel?

    I noticed that sometimes.  I just quit iTunes and restart.  The problem reoccur not (until it is once again).  But for me, it's months between occurrences.

    Hello world

    Thank you for your help in advance.

    I would like to ask why I could not create a new VPN connection as the "Creat new network connection" is grayed out. I'm also sure that remote access connection manager, and another car once are started.

    I can create an account with my domain administrator account. But once I passed the orginary user, the shortcut to the connection could not be accessed. I also tried to add the user to the local Administrators group, and the result is the same.

    HOEP that you can help.

    Thank you.

    Do you have any software security 3rd party running on this computer?  Or maybe something in group policy that limits access to create a new network connection?

  • How could I give priority to my network connections, (without turning off the strap attached, as it took), so that it uses the internet from my main network connection?

    Prioritize network connections

    OK, here's the situation.
    I have a regular ethernet connection that provides me with a network and the internet.
    I have also a tablet PC which I attach to my PC so I can use it as a controller. (Not that it is important, but it's for a DAW/Midi controller)

    My problem is that whenever I place my tablet, PC starts by ignoring my normal connection and taking the internet from my Tablet (even when it is not connected to the internet). As a result, my internet is de-energized once I tie it, if I'm not as under the wifi on my tablet.

    My question is, how could I give priority to my network connections, (without turning off the strap attached, as it took), so that it uses the internet from my main network connection?

  • Why I still see other appearing in my list of wireless network connection when network discovery is turned off?

    Why other users who are are my nearby?

    Can I be sure that they cannot see me when discovery of the network on my computer is off?

    Should I worry about these other users?

    I am the only computer in my home group, and my wife uses a Tablet using my wireless network key. but no one else has access to my home group.

    Discovery Network turns off the discovery of other devices that are already inside your trusted network (like your TV system game, tablets, phones and other computers).

    It does not affect the list of wireless network connection, which is actually just a list of wifi nearby broadcasting system has found.  You can not turn off without turning off your wifi.  But this isn't a security problem.

  • HP OfficeJet 6500 (not wireless) times out on the network after various periods of inactivity

    Hello

    As the subject says, I have a HP 6500 from JO that will expire after a random period of inactivity on the network.  It will not respond to print jobs, pings, http for its Web page requests, or scan nmap.  Stop/restart the printer temporarily resolves the issue until it times out again.  I think it is not related to drivers, because there is no need of drivers installed on a machine on the network.  Anyone has any idea on what this could be?  Has anyone experience this problem?  I have no history of problems of auto-negotiation on my network (I am dealing with devices at work who do not play nice with auto-negotiation, and the only option for them was to put it to manual), but just in case, I changed the setting manually set to 100 Mbps Full.  Having just done this, I do not have yet to see if this changes what anyone, but I want to see if someone else has all possible solutions.

    Thank you.

    It seems that the static IP address has been resolved - it has not yet expired since I put it.  It seems that he fixed - lease DHCP renewal seems to give this printer problems.
