Connect to Wireless Router

Hi all,

I have a Dell Inspiron 9300 (specs in sig). I'm currently developing a test environment and have added my laptop to a domain I created on a server three feet away from me. Right now my laptop is connected to a wireless router, but it doesn't connect to it until I log on. This is a problem because it isn't connected when I try to log onto the domain, thus it cannot find the domain controller.

Is there some way I can have it connect to the router at boot?

Use the Windows Zero Configuration wireless instead of the Intel Pro Set to configure the wireless. It runs as a service. Right click on the Pro Set icon in the systray and choose Use Microsoft Client.
