First Issue: Networking

I don't know whats happening but suddenly past few days any time my laptop
goes in sleep mode, the network shuts off and ridiculously takes several
attempts to connect after coming back out of sleep mode. It always disconnects
and then connects "with limited access" (in other words, ziltch).

This is what event log shows:

: The embedded controller (EC) did not respond within the specified timeout
period. This may indicate that there is an error in the EC hardware or
firmware or that the BIOS is accessing the EC incorrectly. You should check

Note I've already done an o/s reload very recently. Networking
has never had this issue at all. However, sleep mode did before/after reload

You may want to check your power settings in the BIOS or reset the
advance power settings through Control Panel. Also, check the power
setting configuration on the NIC through Network Connections to see if
you can prevent the NIC from turning itself off?
