Using the computer

-<Wake On LAN> feature may not work while using Hybrid power saving feature. Hybrid sleep mode can be disabled from Power Options under Control Panel.

For Windows 8, Wake On LAN is not supported by Ping.

When connected to a 100Mbps/1Gbps wired LAN and the computer exits Sleep/hibernation mode, a message appears informing you of a connection to a 10Mbps/100Mbps wired LAN. This happens because when the computer exits standby/hibernate mode, restoring the network takes about 3 seconds. When the network is restored, it operates at 100Mbps/1Gbps.

When system is running on battery, some time it may take a few second extra after inserting LAN cable to be able to connect to internet. This symptom happen as a result of power saving feature to reduce battery consumption.

When system is running on battery, the Wired LAN speed is decreased automatically to reduce battery consumption. In such case, a 1Gbps /100Mbps LAN would function at 100Mbps/10Mbps speed.
