Hi Harold, yes, EW-7811UTC will reconnect to internet when you use stand by, sleep or hibernate mode or restart your PC. We did not receive any complainant about this issue before. Thank you. Edimax Tech Support

Yes it does. Which ever mode it is in when you shut it off is the mode it comes back on it.

It did. I just returned it because it kept disconnecting from the internet.

No if you disconnect it, there are times when it resets like it happened to you.

Only if you hit pause prior to shut down it will resume where you left off when you turn it back on

So far, for me, when the computer sleeps, it disconnects the drive. When it wakes, it mounts it again. Sometimes, it just disconnects and reconnects for me while I am working. :(

Connect - yes. Work - may be not. It is devoid of any functionality and customer support is non existent. When it goes to sleep mode or powers off - only way to get it connected is remove and replug it back. There are better products out there

I leave mine plugged into power all the time, but I unplug it from my laptop. When I disconnect, it goes to sleep; then it wakes up and mounts when I plug back in. For reference I use a Mac not a PC.

I've had the same issue. I started turning off the keyboard when not in use and it reconnects when I turn it back on. That's definitely not the best solution but it has worked ok for me. I don't know if you we're having the same exact issue, mine typically did this after it was dormant a minute or so.

I have not had a power failure yet but once power comes on, modem and wireless router will reset automatically. Although computers and smartphones are setup to automatically connect to wireless routers, on rare occasions they do require operator intervention. I would imagine the cyberstat would behave in the same way.

I unplugged my Internet and checked. It seemed to work fine, so I can only assume it uses the Internet for updates and maintenance from MS and to verify you are not loading the program on a different computer.

I never put my pc in sleep/hibernate, but when it powers up or restarts, I have internet access before I can even launch chrome. Note my OS is on an 840 pro 128gb SSD, so it's insanely quick, if not instant

I have left mine connected without being plugged in for a few hours without a problem. But I don't know about permanently I have never done that.

It recognizes the keyboard after non use but doesn't reconnect instantly, if you hit a couple of keys and wait a few seconds it reconnects. I usually shut mine down anyway to extend battery life though.

Yes it does automatically connects to your wifi but if you have a security password you have to enter it in the wifi settings

It seems to power down when powered down. The light goes off and the drives stop spinning. I'm not sure about sleep mode, my computer is either off or being used. Hope that helps.

I haven't had a problem with coming back into range with my phone and it reconnecting. Like all things, you have to set up your devices to connect automatically. There have been a few times, though, that I've had to reset the modem because the WiFi wasn't connecting but my desktop PC was (because it's hard wired). It's just one of those things. It even says in the instructions that you should reset your modem at least once a month.
