Heu Guys I am new here, I am truly happy that I bought this device I love it but the wifi issue is kinda annoying me,  please note that I updated Everything on the device Windows update ummm Acer driver package latest 2.08, idk if this is a problem OR if its a windows setting that can be fixed

 

Here is a few pics that i took of the tablet : http://www.ksalue.com/main/2013/02/hands-on-acer-w510-windows-8-tablet/

 

Here is the problem :

 

When I press the power button " turn of the screen " if it stays closed for over maybe 1min or even less I am not to sure tho, I alwys check after 5mins  I notice that my Wifi is connected but it has Limited connectivty so I either have to Dignose the problem via controller panal or I dissconnect and re connect and it works normally, I only have " This " issue when I turn off the screen, but when I just keep playing with it " the screen is on " for hours it doesnt happen, and when I download something " or update " and turn off the screen the net into into limited connectivty when idownload or update it downloads for a  of the file then it goes into limited connectivty, " the download gets interrupted because of the limited connection."

 

And yes I have tried different internet connections and the same problem !

 

Please do Advice on what to do ?

 

Note : I Have Acer W510 32GB " Edition "

 

Edit 1 : I Tried to go control panal and to network sharing opened the network adapter and ticked off the box that says "allow the computer to turn off this device to save power" , when i did and i close the screen then i try to turn it on and it wouldn't and I have to force shut down it and then turn it on again !
