I have a external HD with bitlocker enabled and it keeps losing connection with my windows 11 pro while it's plugged in. It will ask for the passphrase and work as normal. But upon either leaving the machine alone for a while or having it come back from sleep, it will give me a "Access Denied" when I try to access it. Only way to get past this is to either reboot, or unplug/plug in the drive.

Presently, I'm unencrypting the external drive, then going to encrypt it again to see if it helps.

Hoping to see if anyone has any insight if this will help and/or I need to be doing something else.

(Just in case this helps) This external drive was a copy of a usb flash that was dying. The flash drive was also bitlocker enabled. I encrypted the new external before copying the files over.

I've got a quick question I hope someone knows the answer to. I've got a friend running a few x90s in mesh and AP mode. They have a DHCP server that handles IP of anyone connecting to the APs. They were wondering if they turned on the guest mode, would the AP handle the DHCP of the guests or would their server be handling those requests?
