[Resolved] VM startup cause host to sleep and sometime wifi to go down

Every time I startup my VM image my laptop goes to sleep. As soon is I manually power it back up the VM continues booting up and all is well. Sometimes my wifi also goes down for my whole network, maybe it's affecting the DHCP server?
Host in Windows 10 on a Sony VAIO laptop.

Sorry, Johnny, the log needs to be zipped and posted here using the forum's Upload Attachment tab. Try again and we'll see what we can do.

I figured out my problem. I had a UPS status coming in over USB and I have the USB assigned to the virtual box image. When the host loses that USB connection it goes to sleep.
Not sure what was causing my network to go down though :?

You can select which USB devices are connected to the host and which are connected to the VM. The uninterruptible power supply (UPS) USB connection is/was assigned to the VM.
