Laptop: Lenovo Thinkpad X61, 4GB Ram, 2 Ghz
OS: Debian 9 (Stretch) with Plasma 5.8.6
Kernel: 4.9.0.8-amd64
Every time my system goes idle, my WiFi connection shuts down and NM won't let me re-connect, the only options are to edit or delete. NM ver is 1.6.2. The only thing that fixes it is a reboot. I know there is probably a simple fix for this. I had a similar problem in the last thread I posted, and I thought this was fixed, but no.
Thank you so much for your help. You guys are the best! I mean it!

So, does this mean it is power managed and if so, how do I turn that off?
