Why does turning of Energy Saving Ethernet on a Windows PC cause normal function?

I have the hub 5 and had problems with hard wired ethernet PC having issues connecting to the internet when in a standby state and sometimes from a cold boot up. I have a Hub 5 which has 3 switches connected to it that feed different parts of the house. The switches are unmanaged.

  • Hey mda99das, thank you for reaching out and I am sorry you are having some connection issues.

    Did the above help at all?

      Yes it was an interesting read, still not perfect, as sometimes I have to unplug the ethernet, but it is better.

      Any idea when a fix will come out.

      On another note I put a post about needing a Wifi Pod that can be connected by ethernet cable. can you help?

    Might be months quicker and far less painful to buy a Wireless Access Point !
