I dont use any widget on my desktop, only use shortcuts. As you mentioned, I do close the browser also when not in use.

I think when i manually disconnect the wifi, it still runs some process in the background, though i cant see any signal bars, but if the battery is not draining if i switch to offline mode and then back to online, it means it has to be an issue with wifi.
