This is all non-specific. The issue started as "What's the latest? Does anyone here know?"

I don't think anyone here has provided a computer model number or ISP name. How would that have helped us know what happens, that is, what you actually do, when you "just close the lid"?

And, again, I must say that

would be a total contradiction if you've set the laptop to hibernate when you close the lid. Obviously you don't, but that shows that there's a whole world of choices that ARE the thing that you initiate by closing the lid.
