Wifi lost during sleep/lock

Hi there,

I just bought a Wiko BLOOM that runs Android 4.4.2.
It runs smoothly, except for one thing:

It keeps losing the wifi connection during sleep, although the wifi-icon is still on.
Turning wifi off and on again restores the connection, but this is getting annoying.

My advanced wifi-settings are:

Network notification: off
Keep wifi on during sleep: Always
Scanning always available: off
Wifi optimalization: off
Passpoint: off

Any suggestions? I have an old Alcatel 5020, which never had any problem....

Cheers,

Cees

Re: Wifi lost during sleep/lock

Silly question maybe, but could have anything to do with my wireless router?
Routers don't disconnect devces due to non-use, unless a) you're on a guest account on the router or b) the connection has been inactive longer than the DHCP renewal time (which is normally 24 hours, although my laptops and desktop stay connected longer than they without being used).
