Wi-Fi trying to connect when turned off

I'm not really sure what this would fall under. When I am away from my cradle and not connected wirelessly about every 30 minutes or so I get a popup window saying that it cannot connect. Usually this happens when I'm at lunch and reading an e-book or something so the unit is on for a period of time. I know there's probably and easy answer but I just cannot think of it.

Hmm

I am an x50v user so this response may be completly off base.

Have you tried turning off WiFi when you are not actually using it? I would think the path is similiar to mine, which is, Start, Settings, Connections, WLAN Utility.

Or possibly you have something else running that is trying to connect, like email or something.

Anybody else got ideas? :scratch_h

Sounds like Greenbak is right. Check to see if your email is set to automatically check for new email and disable it.

That did the trick, I think. I had both of my e-mail accounts hitting every fifteen minutes. I was thinking that it was one of my weather apps trying to update. thanks for for the help!
