In order for the Hercules ePlug adapter to switch to standby mode, the network card on your
computer or other network device must be inactive (i.e. no data is being transferred). To be sure that the
network card remains inactive, you can unplug the computer from its electrical outlet, particularly if you
don't intend to use it again for some time, or, if the computer is plugged into a power strip with an On/Off
button, you can press the Off button on the power strip.
