A method implemented in a computer system that includes a host computer having a non-transitory memory for storing a computer software program and a processor for executing the software program, wherein the program includes a program code configured to cause the host computer to execute a process for network devices coupled to the host computer to use a network device selective suspend feature of an operating system (OS) that does not allow a network device selective suspend feature on a specific network device driver, which process includes the steps of providing a first driver stack and a second driver stack in a kernel space of the OS, creating a virtual device for the specific network device driver in the first driver stack to interact with user applications in a user space of the OS, and providing a separate driver for a physical device in the second driver stack to interact with a network device coupled to the host computer, wherein the separate driver is not prohibited by the OS to use the network device selective suspend feature for selective suspension of the network device coupled to the host computer.
