Wireless Access point

Can anyone help me?
I have an wired network at home that connects my Desktop (an Advent) to my laptop (an Advent). Both pc's are running 10/100 network cards via a switch. When I plug in my wireless access point I cannot get a link at all. Also if I use a crossover cable from my desktop to the wireless access point the link light comes on and I can connect fine to my desktop from my laptop. But soon as I reboot my desktop I lose the network connection to my wireless access point. Has anyone seen this and managed to fix? If so I would like to know how. Thanks
