I have got one of these...
BELKIN F5D7050UK WIRELESS 54G USB NETWORKING ADAPTER to make my PC connect to my wireless network, i set up the connection within vista and it found my network and connects fantastically, always "Excellent" strength. but the problem i am having is that when i switch on my PC it loads everything up but the wireless network is found but will not connect, eventhough i have set the setting to do so automatically. ATM i am having to unplug and replug the device at which point it connects automatically!! any ideas? |

If you right-click on the network connection, and properties,there is a spot
to tick to connect auto! "Chuds" wrote: I have got one of these...

I have the same problem. plugging replugging does the trick. I just saw
something about network discovery can take up to 15 minutes to see an xp machine. I never waited 15 minutes to see if vista would go out and auto connect. We have a TrendNet usb stick. Not sure if my problem is same as yours but sure looks that way. I am going to look for a usb discovery setting. Maybe this is a security default setting. Post if you figure it out please. JR |
