    My wifi keeps on disconnecting every time I close the lid of my MSI gt 70 dominator. I tried unchecking the allow computer etc in the device manager but to no avail. I also changed the power options to do nothing when closing the lid. What do I do?

    Change power profile to high performance?

    If it's a setting that's causing, that SHOULD fix it. Conversely, you can leave your lid slightly open...

    The light from the power button would still be seen.

    Try changing your wireless card setting to high performance in advanced power settings.
