If you wish the network function of the LAN, HDMI and UPLINK sockets to be
maintained even when the K8 is on stand-by (i.e. in order to keep the system’s
games console or TV set constantly connected to the Internet), you must select
Standby mode 'On (Comfort Standby)'.
In order to fulfil the European regulations for stand-by current drain, the default
setting is “ECO Standby”.
