sleep mode

when in sleep mode i sometimes come back to my computer and find it out of
sleep mode. is this supposed to happen? thanks

There are several settings in the BIOS setup for waking from standby, like
"Wake on LAN" or "Wake on Ring"

Try this:
Control; Panel>Device Manager>Network Adapters>Select "your adapter">Right
Click for "Properties">Power Management Tab> Uncheck the wake up On
LAN--------or something close to these directions. You have to stop any LAN
activity from waking the computer.
