I have a problem:
I have a wireless router installed.
I protected the router with username and password.
When I start up my PC, I am not connected to the wireless router. Until I click on the connection and fill in my Username and password.
The problem is: I don't want to log on to the router every time I start up Windows XP.
On my PC I have a USB-stick that connects with the wireless router. (Maybe this is the problem)
Is it possible that when I startup Windows XP, I automaticly log on to the router, without to fill in the username and password again.

when you conenct to wireless network on your laptop - you need to save credentials for future logins without password.
and why would you connect to ur router everytime? o_O?
alternatevly - on Choose a Wireless Network Screen - select -> Change Advanced setting and put ur password for wireless

I believe Thizo is confusing logon to the workstation with logon to the router.

Soho routers don't require logon except to administer them. Even wireless encryption once set is automatic.

Google tweakUI for the gui interface or autologon xp for the registry hack.

Understand automating logon unsecures your pc. Anyone with physical access can walk up and access your files once you set this.
