  1. guys pls help every time i wake my ROG Ally X from sleep, the Wi-Fi shows:

    Network & internet

    Network & internet
    Wi-Fi  •  HomeNet_5G
    No internet, secured
    
    Connected, but nothing loads. Troubleshoot problems?
    

    The symptom: slow speeds. Im on a mesh ntework. A full restart fixes it, but that defeats teh point of sleep mode. Is there a setting i can change?

    Its especially annoying when I want to quickly jump into an online game lol Restarting every time defeats the point of having a quick-resume handheld.

    Other devices on teh same network dont have this issue at all, so Im fairly sure its something on the handheld itself. Any ideas are welcome. what am i doing wrong??

  2. in Device Manager, open ur Wi-Fi adapters properties, go to Power Management and uncheck Allow the computer to turn off this device to save power. fingers crossed 🤞

  4. sometimes disabling the power-saving option drains the battery more. its a trade-off. just my 2 cents
