My problem right now is, when i connect my macbook to my hp external monitor wake the computer up in closed lid mode, my internet connection is lost, and it doesn't come back unless i restart my computer.

I'm using the new airport express.

Please, how can i make it so i can connect my external monitor, use it in closed lid mode, and keep my internet connection
But it work in that scenario with the lid open.

I'm just trying/wondering how to figure out lid closed while can be connected with the wireless connection.
thanks a lot!

yeah. currently my problems i have to open the lid while the wireless connection is connected, if i closed the lip the wireless aint work. If you do a knows, after connected with external display, you try turn up the lid it's blank.

so i just do not want to open the lid, as usual people said, closed lid still connected to wireless, but mine are not =[
