PC is awake mode standby by internet signals

I have a Dell Inspiron 530 desktop PC and am running Vista with IE 8.  Recently, I had to Exchange my older model Motarola modem for a newer model of my cable because of problems with the old provider.  The oldest was a standby key with which I could cut the internet signal from my pc.  I put it in standby mode every time I put my PC in mode 'sleep' and allowed him to stay a 'sleep' mode until I chose to wake up it.  The new modem does not have the sleep function and my cable provider said the older modem model are actually disappear, and that the sleep function is not included in the new models.  What, in my view, that is happening now, is that whenever I put the machine to sleep it is invariably being awakened by a kind of internet traffic.  As previously recommended that I turned off the ability in the e-mail software that had been set to check for mail every 20 minutes, but this has not fixed the same problem if at the beginning, I thought that this was the case.   Is there something more I can do in Windows to prevent the machine to be woken up fashion 'sleep'?  Thank you.

If you have a router at home, then you have a LAN.

I could uncheck the boxes and see if it makes a difference.  It can't hurt to try.

  • Yellow ' dot/star' on my internet (signal strength bar) icon in the systray.

    Original title: yellow dot on the wireless icon

    I have a yellow dot, or more specifically a yellow star on my internet (signal strength bar) icon in the systray. The weird part is that I seem to have a complete internet service. What is this and how do I get rid of him. (If all you have is a solution, it is fine, also.) The weird part is that, if the computer has served for a long time, she disappears.

    Thanks in advance.

  • Switch 10 (64 GB, 1920 x 1200) - BSOD in standby mode (standby)

    Hi people,

    I have a stable problem with my new Acer Switch 10, 64 GB model with screen 1920 x 1200 - if I pass automatically in standby mode (standby mode), I have about 50/50 to find it restarts when I come back to it - at some point during sleep, it falls in a "your computer has encountered a problem and needs to restart. It was 1 day of use - I encountered this already 10 times, that's why I decided to ALWAYS switch off the shelf by judgment. This is not very practical. I checked with BlueScreenView minidump files - error is still the same, catches of attached check screen

    Should I send it to the service? WIndows is preinstalled, all including the BIOS updates are installed.

    Minidumps can be downloaded here - https://drive.google.com/folderview?id=0B7Gf-eniqaBzdlBwa0pWeDhSNWc&usp=drive_web

    After I've sent my crashdumps bugtracker VirtualBox I pointed a wireless driver for Realtek which seems to cause the problem. Unfortunately the version installed is the last provided acer.com on in support area - v3007.2. I had to look for a newer version of this driver and managed to find an HP website. More details can be found here - https://www.virtualbox.org/ticket/13902

    The new (v.3007.6) driver for Realtek RTL8723BS wireless SDIO card can be downloaded here - http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/softwareDownloadIndex?cc=ru&lc=ru&dlc=ru&softwareitem=ob-140101-1

    In addition to solving my problem, it also fixes ad one when sometimes wifi connection becomes limited and no network do not appear until the reboot (or sometimes assisted flight mode). I recommend all users to Switch 10 update their drivers. It's a shame that Acer provides no drivers on the official site updated.

    Problem solved.

  • Notifications not working when phone Mode standby

    Hello

    I took delivery of my Z3 Compact last month, and overall it is very good. This is completely standard, out-of-the-box, with no apps that affect the system.

    I found a very annoying problem with the Notifications sound when the phone is in mode 'sleep', IE the screen completely black, either due to the function of time-out or when I press the round power button.

    The problem is that no notification not crossed; If I'm expecting an email from work, I constantly to wake up the phone and as soon as the lock screen appears, then do the notifications.

    How can I get the phone to always send a notification sound, even in mode 'sleep'.

    Thank you

    Dear Sir.

    Please please let me have your advice to return to my email address: * email address is removed from the privacy *.

    Thank you very much!

    Eric

    Hi Eric,.

    You can follow these steps:

    Step 1: perform a clean boot to verify if an application or service is causing the problem.

    See this article for more information on the clean boot:
    How to troubleshoot a problem by performing a clean boot in Windows Vista or in Windows 7
     http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/929135

    Steps to perform a clean boot:
    a. click the ORB start on your desktop
    b. type msconfig in the search box and press ENTER.
    If you are prompted for an administrator password or a confirmation, type the password, or click on continue.
    c. in the general tab, click Selective startup.
    d. under Selective startup, clear the check box load startup items.
    e. click on the Services tab, select the hide all Microsoft Services check box and then click Disable all.
    f. click OK.
    g. When prompted, click on restart.

    NOTE: Please check that you start the computer in normal mode after a repair. Follow step 7 article.

    Step 2: Configure the power settings for keyboard, mouse, and other devices.

    a. Click Start, click Control Panel, hardware and sound, and then click keyboard.
    b. click on the Hardware tab, and then click the properties button.
    c. click Change settings.
    d. click the power management tab and verify that the allow this device to wake the computer is selected.
    e. If "Allow this device to wake the computer" was not selected, select it and click OK.
    Follow the same steps for the mouse as well.

    If the problem persists, disconnect all non-essential devices (printers, scanners, USB drives). Restart the computer with only the original mouse, monitor, and
    connected keyboard. If this solves the problem of sleep/wake, one of the devices was causing the problem. Replace a device at a time and test to see if the
    problem occurs again. Continue adding devices and testing until you find the device that causes the problem.

    Refer to this article for additional troubleshooting steps.
