More stupid noob questions

Hi 2 things that I have discovered since my initial install last night

If the PC goes to sleep I cannot wake it from the keyboard I have to manually press the button on the PC itself

I have checked the power options and cannot see anything to change it

Also if it goes to sleep I lose my internet access and have to reboot

One thing I did when initially installing was install the driver on the welcome box, it asked me to install an extra driver in case of internet problems

Any pointers would be very helpful

More information is needed about your machine.

Could you show the output of the returned URL from command

  inxi -Fxxxz | eos-sendlog

Package r8168 may be the culprit for the network problem.
Some machines need it, but other machines don’t.

So you could try installing it and reboot.
If it doesn’t work, then uninstall it and reboot.

no swap, so only suspend will work no hibernate.

I have that problem on my Intel NUC7. The answer for me is to add the following to the Linux line in either Grub or SystemD:

snd_hda_codec_hdmi.enable_silent_stream=0

This problem began with Linux 5.4, I think and does not affect AMD CPUs.
