How to keep connection going on lappy w/ standby?

When the sucker goes to standby the connection drops. I have gone to device manager/network card and disabled the 'save power mode' and 'wake computer with network activity', didn't seem to do a thing.

Standby is supposed to shut down network connections since it puts the system into a suspended state. Your best bet is to disable auto-standby and just set the power options to shut off the monitor, rather than suspend the entire laptop, after a period of time.

I think I'll just disable it then.
