Disabling WiFi sleep mode when screen goes off (wm6.1)???

[Shahriar5252]

I have Skype beta 2.5 on my Sprint Mogul (PPC6800) running on wm6.1. Skype, however, requires the wifi to remain on if you want to receive calls. But when my phone's screen goes off the wifi gets disconnected so skype goes offline in which case one can call me if I want them to call me from wifi using skype.

Also, when I am making a Skype call, I want to be able to turn off the screen (or the phone will turn it off after a minute) to save battery, but then the wifi goes off and skype call gets disconnected.

I have tried skype's settings to tell it not to let system go into standby mode and I have tried to change my wifi settings by selecting the non-battery saver mode called "performance." None of these works. When the screen goes off, so does the wifi, and skype becomes unavailable for use.

Can some one tell me a registry tweak to disable the phone from turning off the wifi when the screen turns off? Thank you.
