Remote access on LAN doesn't work after sleep or restart.

I run SAB on my server running Win 7 64bit. I had to do a clean install and installed the newest version of Sab (7). I usually use my tablet or phone to access SAB over my LAN to check on downloads, etc.

However since the v7 install I seem to get times where I can't login to the SAB page over my LAN. It seems to get stuck. I have to go to my Server and login to get to my desktop on Win7 and then I am able to access the SAB page over LAN. So it seems to be stuck whenever my server goes to sleep or restarts.

Is there a setting that I need to change for SAB to accessible even if I did not login to my server after a restart or sleep?

Thanks.

How do you start SABnzbd if you're not logged in?
Do you run it as a Windows service?

I installed it via the .exe for Windows and then created a shortcut to SAB and placed that in the Start folder so when Windows starts then SAB starts automatically.

As far as I know, the Start folder is only processed when someone logs in.
You either need to install it as a service (http://wiki.sabnzbd.org/sabnzbd-as-a-windows-service)
or as a task in the Windows Task Scheduler (don't know the details for that).
