windows 7 won't auto connect to network

Windows connects fine to wireless network manually but does not automatically seek and connect when rebooted. Is there something that has to be set in win 7 to get it to do this?

 

Hmmm....When I was in my boarding house, I can connect to a wifi signal but there are times it won't auto-connect even though it was configured. Perhaps, there's something wrong with your connection.

Back at home, my laptop connects fine and automatically but when I am using someone's wifi, it's a 30% chance it will connect.

I'm using Windows Vista.

Point is that if you got a stable connection, it WILL auto-connect but if you have an un-stable connection, you need to connect it manually.

I don't knowif I help but I thought I would like to share a similar situation as yours

 

Not sure that is problem here

in his setup the signal is very stable and strong. They have the unit only maybe 7 ft from the router.

 

Thanks will try this today

 

forgot to add that the issue i had with someone's wifi is that the notification is saying "Un-identified" but after a few days, it says connected with the globe in the monitor icons.

I think it's something to do with the connection of the modem.

Anyway, try Arie's suggestion and I hope it resolves your connection problem. I think you may have to assign the connection for your PC to auto-connect. Perhaps it's what I missed with someone's WiFi, don't I? I'll look at the profile of my boarding house's wifi as I may not "register" it properly
