When connected to a 100Mbps/1Gbps wired LAN , a message appears informing the user of connection to a 10Mbps/100Mbps wired LAN when the computer wakes from sleep mode. This happens because restoring the network takes about 3 seconds. When the network is restored, the computer will be connected to the 100Mbps/1Gbps LAN.

When the system is running on battery power, it may take a few seconds for the connection to be established when connecting a LAN cable. This is the result of power saving features designed to reduce battery consumption.

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