Disabling Network card after shutdown?

SYL\X/3K · 09-19-2007, 08:41 PM

Each time my system is turned off my eithernet card is still active with my modem. Its an onboard eithernet card and i was wondering how can disable the power to the card when my system is off?

the thing is that my other 3 computers turn off all together but the one im using right now is the picky one , i look through the BIOS and found nothing , ill guess ill get myself a cable modem with a standby button

Yes it is a problem when my modem is sending and recieving packets when my computer is off , it usually needs to be resetted after couple days and its annoying
