Loses wifi (EDIT: and/or internet) after idle time?

[whitenack]

I believe this just started happening after the recent firmware update, but I haven't had it long enough to know for sure...

If the Prime has sat unused for a while, it seems to lose it's connection. Well, not really, because it still shows being connected to the wifi network, but it won't receive any data. No speedtest, no email, no browser, etc.. The only thing that will get it going again is to either reboot or uncheck/re-check wifi.

I have my wifi settings set to "Never", so I'm not sure what is going on.

Re: Looses wifi after idle time?

i got same prob, i just got mine 2 days ago and i did the new update almost right away, i noticed the prob later on that night when i picked it up again after like 5 hrs of sleeping and had to turn wifi on and off again. I hope this can be fixed with ICS update and hope its not part of wifi prob because when it comes to speeds i got no probs

Re: Looses wifi after idle time?

I am still having this problem, although now, I seem to keep the wifi connection but lose the internet connection. My little wifi icon is still there, although it turns white instead of the normal blue. I have to turn off wifi, then turn it back on for the internet to return.

I am not sure what triggers the loss of connection, but it happens just about every time it has been sitting idle for a few hours.
