Soft Locker not keeping NC WiFi from sleeping

Okay, I've searched, and all I've found is people saying that Soft Locker is the way to keep WiFi from sleeping when the Nook Color screen sleeps. If I turn the Nook Color back on within, say, a minute of it going to sleep, the WiFi is still on. Any longer, though, and I've got to wait about 10 seconds for the WiFi to reconnect. (Yes, 10 seconds is a long time when one is easily distracted by shiny objects.)

Soft Locker seemed to work for a little while but no more. I've even tried opening it up and "enable" sleep and "disable" sleep, thinking maybe it's not quite working after a reboot, but no dice: WiFi still shuts down.

Suggestions?
 
I can't answer this with any certainty, but are you using one of the custom kernels? There are a number of WIFI issues with the custom kernels currently. I also have the same problem where mine won't keep the WIFI active with softlocker, etc.
 
I'm trying to figure this out as well. Spare Parts doesn't work. I read in another thread that Advanced Wifi Lock works for some people but I personally haven't tried it.
