WiFi automatically turning off

Hi,
I've got an x220 and an ultrabase.  Whenever I connect to the base, it correctly uses the hardwired network connection but also turns off the WiFi radio.  Then when I disconnect, I always have to turn the radio back on via the F5 applet.  Is there a way I can keep this from happening?  It also happens when I happen to just connect an ethernet cable directly to the machine.
Thanks,
Charlie O

Use two different profiles in Access Connections - one for wired Ethernet and one for the wireless network, both configured for the same network.

  • Wifi automatically turned off when phone sleeps in iOS 5.1.1?

    Before, I used iOS 5.0.1 and wifi would keep turned on when the phone sleeps if I turn off data. This way I could always receive instant notifications. But then I sold the verizon phone and bought a used FU one, installed with iOS 5.1.1. Now wifi is automatically turned off when phone the sleeps, even when data is off. Is this how it works? Because I want to use wifi, even when the phone is off. Thanks.

    I have had and iphone 4 for the last couple of years with all the different IOS upgrades and never experienced such a thing!? I do not have a cell data plan (I even have it switched of in settings) so I rely on wifi and, even when the phone was in standby, the wifi was constantly on! and I received e-mails and skype calls as they arrived, So wifi was certainly ON!
    However, since the last upgrade to IOS 6.0 the wifi is indeed being turned off when the phone goes to sleep mode, which is very annoying!
    Any fix/workaround?
    Thanks

  • Iphone6 plus automatically turn off (frequently)and cannot use WIFI

    Just bought Iphone6 Plus 16GB Gold on 15 Dec 2014 from The Australian official Apple website.
    In this week, my phone turn it off automatically (very frequent, it seems like if i not use my phone, it will shut down)
    and cannot normally turn on the phone, i can only turn it on through HOME BUTTON + TURN ON/OFF BUTTON.
    And after i turn on the phone, the WIFI button become GREY COLOR, which means i cannot use WIFI, cannot turn on/off.
    And i try to restore setting from the phone and also from iTunes through computer, it doesn't help.
    Does anybody know what happen to my phone?

  • Does Verizon automatically turn off Data between Midnight and 7 am??

    It seems that both Smartphones I have in the house, one is my Wife's, the data automatically turns off at midnight each night, then turns itself back on a 7am each morning.
    We have had our phones for three weeks now, and we both have noticed this. If we are up and we check our phones after midnight, there is a message saying, "Data Time Restriction Set". I can not seem to find a setting to take this off.
    Is this something that Verizon automatically does each night?
    Both our phones are the Pantech Maurader running ICS 4.03.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.
    Jim

    Found it!  It's on page 153 of your manual:
    Setting Data restrict time
    1 Tap Apps from the Home Screen and tap Settings > More....
    2 Tap Mobile networks > Data restrict time.
    3 Tap Set data restrict time. It is selected by default. You cannot use
    data during the time.
    4 Tap Start time, adjust time and tap Set.
    5 Tap End time, adjust time and tap Set.

  • Will an iPhone automatically turn off location services.  If it goes below a certain battery power level, and so how you disable this in settings.

    I am working with Georgia DOT and we have created an app to track our state vehicles using IPhone 5. My question is: will an iPhone automatically turn off location services?  If it goes below a certain battery power level, and if so how do you disable this in settings.

    I don't believe that this will happen, however, the entire iPhone will shut down when the iPhone reaches the auto-shutdown power level. There is no way to turn that Off other that connecting the iPhone to power.

    Try a reset. Hold the sleep/wake and home buttons together until you see the Apple logo and then release. The phone will reboot. You may need to connect the device to the charger before you attempt the reset.

  • 6th generation iPod nano automatically turns off when I push het sleep/wake button or when screen turns black after a while. How can I solve this ?

    My 6th generation iPod nano automatically turns off (=stops the music) when I push het sleep/wake button or when screen turns black for power saving mode. Does anyone know how to solve this ?
    I have already tried resetting, connecting to PC/iTunes to check the software version, turning off/on, I don't have any inspiration anymore.
    Thanks for your suggestions!

    Hi VeerleD,
    If your iPod touch unexpectedly powers off, you may want to use the steps in this article to troubleshoot -
    iPhone: Hardware troubleshooting (The steps apply for the iPod touch) -
    Specifically -
    Will not turn on, will not turn on unless connected to power, or unexpected power off
    Verify that the Sleep/Wake button functions. If it does not function, inspect it for signs of damage. If the button is damaged or is not functioning when pressed, seek service.
    Check if a Liquid Contact Indicator (LCI) is activated or there are signs of corrosion. Learn about LCIsand corrosion.
    Connect the iPhone to the iPhone's USB power adapter and let it charge for at least ten minutes.
    After at least 30 minutes, if:
    The home screen appears: The iPhone should be working. Update to the latest version of iOS if necessary. Continue charging it until it is completely charged and you see this battery icon in the upper-right corner of the screen . Then unplug the phone from power. If it immediately turns off, seek service.
    The low-battery image appears, even after the phone has charged for at least 20 minutes: See "iPhone displays the low-battery image and is unresponsive" symptom in this article.
    Something other than the Home screen or Low Battery image appears, continue with this article for further troubleshooting steps.
    If the iPhone did not turn on, reset it while connected to the iPhone USB power adapter.
    If the display turns on, go to step 4.
    If the display remains black, go to next step.
    Connect the iPhone to a computer and open iTunes. If iTunes recognizes the iPhone and indicates that it is in recovery mode, attempt to restore the iPhone. If the iPhone doesn't appear in iTunes or if you have difficulties in restoring the iPhone, see this article for further assistance.
    If restoring the iPhone resolved the issue, go to step 4. If restoring the iPhone did not solve the issue, seek service.
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
    Best,

    Does anyone know how to change the settings so it will turn off/dim/lock automatically without needing to press the white button at the top all day?  I'm draining batter and it's so annoying!

    Try:
    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Reset all settings
    Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
    All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
    - Restore from backup. See:
    iOS: How to back up
    - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
    -  Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.

    i got t9600 proccessor im not sure about my exact model type...
    in the lenovo wifi driver update link it says b4 u install the new update u should check for the following:
    Notes: If you use ThinkVantage Access Connections, the following software must be installed.
    ThinkVantage Access Connections for Windows Vista version 5.21 or higher
    Lenovo System Interface Driver for Windows Vista version 1.00.0702 or higher
    ThinkPad Power Management Driver for Windows 98 SE/Me/2000/XP/Vista version 1.51 or higher or ThinkPad Power Management Driver for SL Series version 1.44 or higher

  • HT1510 how do I continue to charge my ipod shuffle once the computer automatically turns off?

    How do I continue to charge my ipod shuffle once the computer automatically turns off from lack of imput.

    If the shuffle's light turns off, it is not charging.  The computer needs to be active, so that the USB port has power.  You'll need to set the computer so that it turns off the display after inactivity, but the computer remains "awake."
    Or, you can get a USB power adapter, like this
    http://store.apple.com/us/product/MD810LL/A/apple-5w-usb-power-adapter
    and charge the shuffle on the power adapter.

    I'm having problems with my email account. I receive emails when I'm in a wifi zone.  But if the wifi is turned off and i'm not in a zone I don't receive my emails through the cellular network.  Only when I power off the phone and turn it back on, do I receive the emails through the cellualr network (again with the wifi off)

    In your email settings on the phone check to make sure it is set to receive emails on cellular network.  It's a feature you can turn off so your phone isn't constantly updating emails on the cell network, but if you are usually in a place with wifi and aren't concerned about going over your data allowance, you can turn it back on.
