I have a SpeedStream 4100 dsl Modem that works well. The problem I have is that when I place the computer to sleep, the hard drive powers down (as it should), but then within a moment or so, continued activity through the modem tickles my hard drive back from sleep. Is there a way I can configure my Win XP to ignore the modem activity and remain in sleep status (until) I want to awaken it? I've been advised by the I/N provider not to turn off the modem??????

Problem has been resolved by going into Network Adaptor, power management, and unchecking the option that allowed the modem to awaken to the computer. Hopefully this will be a long term solution . Thanks.....Lee Anders
