Sounds like a device somewhere along the way dislikes having your 
computer hibernate. The easiest workaround for this may be to use 
suspend instead of hibernate as a means of saving power. It doesn't 
write all your data to disk and shut the system off like hibernate does, 
but it is effective at saving energy.

I am used to hibernating when I go away for a few hours but every time I try this mode with the satellite connection I end up having to unplug the Satellite Modem for one minute and reboot computer or I am not able to be online. I have called WB three times and they just tell me the satellite is designed to be online constantly. I am not comfortable with the fans in the computer running all day long. One person at Wild Blue told me to go to Internet Options and type under LAN connections: http://wpad.wildblue.com/wpad.dat which I have done but it really has no effect. I need to wake up the Satellite modem somehow  when I come out of hibernaton without constantly unplugging and rebooting.
