Basically I am using the Watchguard SSL VPN, which works fine on ethernet but not over wifi.  Watchgaurd have said the WIFI is auto disconnecting.

<![CDATA[ Re: Lenovo X1 Yoga - Wireless Auto Disconnection ]]> https://forums.lenovo.com/topic/findpost/1301/4573560/4573770 Which generation X1 Yoga do you have?  This was a new BIOS setting in the 2nd generation; 1st generation doesn't have it.  The setting is in BIOS Setup -> Config -> Network.  Also note that Windows 10 itself will auto-disconnect from WiFi when ethernet is connected.

Then it's not BIOS that is causing the disconnection.  It's Windows itself.  You'll have to ask Microsoft how to prevent that, because I don't ]]> Thu, 14 Nov 2019 15:04:40 +0000 https://forums.lenovo.com/topic/findpost/1301/4573560/4573795 someotherguy <![CDATA[ Re: Lenovo X1 Yoga - Wireless Auto Disconnection ]]> https://forums.lenovo.com/topic/findpost/1301/4573560/4573797 Thanks, but have already tried this
