Wifi drops on screen lock

Hi

Noticed this recently. If i am downloading something and i lock my screen, it goes off the network (wifi) and reconnects on screen unlock. My guess is that this has got something to do with adapter properties? This usually happens when i leave the screen locked for about more than 15 min. Any ideas?

Thanks

I think it has something to do with suspend and not the screen lock. When the laptop falls in suspend mode, all of the operations (including wifi) are stopped.
