GA-Q77M-D2H LAN takes long time to restart as sleep
« on: July 17, 2016, 02:40:35 pm »
Hello,
I have a gigabyte mb GA-Q77M-D2H with the intel 82579LM Ethernet chip on board and when the system comes out of sleep state it takes a minute or more before the LAN starts up again.

System is Windows 10 64bit pro and Win7 64bit Pro
i7-3770, 8gb ram and Samsung SSD.

From power off the system boots really quick and the LAN is working just fine, however put it into sleep state and Ethernet takes a minute or more to start up again after leaving sleep state. (Yellow LED blinking).

If I go into device manage and disable and then enable the 82579lm it connects immediately.

I have tweeked just about ever config option in the device options and BIOS that I think would affect the slow start up and nothing has helped. I have also tested with several different generations of the intel LAN drivers.

However and this is the bit that makes little sense I also have an ASUS P8Q77-M mother that is essentially the same as the gigabyte and it works just fine and connects immediately to the LAN after sleeping.

I even tried the ASUS drivers in the GB board and problem the same.

I have installed a TP-Link TG-3468 card and it works instantly out of sleep.

Any ideas please as I have tried everything I can think of :-)
