Problem: When you are using the port replicator, resuming normal operation
from hibernation or standby mode takes a long time.
Solution: If the Ethernet port is enabled, but the port replicator is not
connected to a LAN, resuming operation can take a long time. The computer
queries the Ethernet until the timeout timer stops the query. If you want to
access an Ethernet, connect the network cable. If you are not using the
network, disable the Ethernet port as follows:
