try this:

Here is a technique that works for many. Please open Applications > Accessories > Terminal and do:

Code:

sudo lshw -C network

You will learn details about your wired and wireless card. For example, here is my wireless detail. You need the exact name of your wireless driver.

Quote:

*-network
description: Wireless interface
product: PRO/Wireless 3945ABG [Golan] Network Connection
vendor: Intel Corporation
--- snip ---
configuration: broadcast=yes driver=iwl3945 ip=192.168.1.108

Next do:

Code:

sudo gedit /etc/pm/config.d/config

The text editor gedit will open. Type in:

Code:

SUSPEND_MODULES="iwl3945"

Substitute the driver name you found. Proofread carefully, save and close gedit.

Suspend and report your success.

I have a sony vaio vpc and have experienced the same problem. One thing that seems to work consistently is turning of my wireless before I suspend. My laptop has a button for this, so I just have to flick the switch. When I come back from suspend, I turn the wireless back on once I have logged in.

Perhaps you simply need to restart your network manager.

sudo systemctl restart NetworkManager
