Network disconnect on screen sleep

[NJD_fan]

Hey all, I just got my replacement from Best Buy as I have their service plan.

I can't remember how to do it now, but every time the screen shuts off the wifi/wireless network disconnects. I still get the bars but takes a few seconds to reconnect.

I searched, on here and the web, and in the settings but couldn't find it or remember how to do it.

I'm sure once one of you fine people remind me, i'll feel stupid (since !diot is banned??) for ever forgetting

Thank you!

Go to Settings>Wi-Fi, tap the Menu button, then Advanced, then set "Keep Wi-Fi on during sleep" to Always.

Thanks B. Diddy but that was already on "always."

How do I stop it or if i'm on the regular network from going off?

Hmm. How do you know the network connection drops out? Try this test--start streaming some music via Google Play Music, and let the screen go to sleep. If the music keeps playing, the network is remaining connected.

I know it drops out because I was on facebook & let the screen idle. When I went back to it, got the no data connection (or whatever it is it says) when I tried to type for a second or two.

Oh, this too...

That little spot where 4G LTE, 3G, etc should be.
