Hi,
I have problem with my sony vaio pro 13, the wifi won't connect to the internet because the wireless capability turned off by itself. When i restart my laptop, the wifi turned on then suddenly turned off. How can I turn it on?
Any idea?

Thank you
 
I would try reinstalling the wireless driver
Get the driver from Sony's website, uninstall the driver via Device Manager in Windows, restart, install the driver.

Ok, thanks I will try. Do you mean by uninstalling the intel(R) dual band wireless?

Open Intel Collaborative Performance Control (CPPC) and check CPU aggressiveness. Chances are you might find it at 100%. Reduce CPU aggressiveness to 80% (80-20 rule). This shall improve overall experience like no connection lost when packet is lost. Found this solution here: http://www.troublefixers.org/laptops/fix-sony-vaio-pro-wifi-issues/367/
