-- Posted by pretty7 at 3:23 am on June 21, 2009 how long does a wireless computer stay on without using internet connection? i just wanna listen to music on limewire which doesnt require internet -- Posted by King Kong at 3:25 am on June 21, 2009 O god Wireless will stay on, unless you turn it off -- Posted by EmerleeX at 3:28 am on June 21, 2009 You don't NEED internet to run a computer believe it or not. And wireless will be on until you 1)turn it off 2) the source fails. -- Posted by Ancient Rights at 3:29 am on June 21, 2009 I assume you mean a laptop, so it would last until the battery died. -- Posted by nzdude at 3:31 am on June 21, 2009 until you turn it off i think... -- Posted by Catlin at 3:53 am on June 21, 2009 Moved to correct section. Assuming your talking about battery, it will last till your battery drains. Could be a little like a hour up to 16 depending on the model. To turn your wireless card off, (It drains battery ad eats bandwidth), normally a button on the laptop keyboard turns it off, or you can do so in network properties. ~ Cat
