Model: Archer C5400X  
Hardware Version: V1
Firmware Version: 191223

I have been running into an issue where if a laptop or computer is left on for a period of time, it will disconnect from the network via wifi.   This is happening with two different laptops, both running windows 10.   Under "Power and Sleep" on Windows, there is a section for Network Connection - and it says "When my PC is asleep and on battery power, disconnect from the network" - this is set to never.   Also, this happens when the units are physically plugged into power.  

 

Anyone else run into this and have any ideas?  I was looking through the settings for TP LINK and nothing was obvious as to what might cause this.

 

Thanks..

That is a reported issue with Windows 10.
