Client Connecting while Windows is Sleeping?

Post by doteater » Wed Apr 26, 2017 7:55 pm

Hey folks,

I imagine this has come up but my search-function-fu is failing me.

A few (Windows 7+10) users are having the issue that the Openvpn client tries to connect while their laptops are sleeping, with the lid shut.

I've tried changing power settings, disabling hibernate, checked that "wake up" isn't enabled on the network interfaces.

Any suggestions on how to get the client to reliably sleep along with Windows?

Thanks very much, let me know what info I can provide.
