Laptops initial attempt to connect to wireless access point fails

by sciencenovice . Updated 18 years, 10 months ago

Whenever I initially turn my laptop (pc) on it fails to connect to an access point (e.g. in the library). I’ve looked at the properties section in the wireless network connection and in the wireless networks section all the preferred networks show automatic connection. The connection is firewalled but that isn’t any different than previous to this problem. I’m suspicious that one of my recent downloads changed my registry but I’m not sure which one. I can fix the problem each time by doing a repair (ie disabling and enabling the connection) but it’s a hassle. I don’t have any timeout issues or change of configuration after I’ve done the repair. Despite “googling” the problem I’m stumped. I need some suggestions. Thanks Science Student
