Hello, Everything appears to be working fine, except now, every time I put my computer to sleep or restart it, I have to restart the 'wireless zero configuration' service. Otherwise I don't get the "Wireless Networks" tab under Wireless Network Connection Properties. Once the service is started, I have to go to that tab and click on "Use Windows to configure my wireless network settings".
Any idea how I can make it so my computer always has these settings enabled? The "Wireless Zero Configuration" is set to start as "Automatic", but so far, that doesn't appear to ever start automatically.
its another utility thats taking over wireless internet. you came close when you said everytime you restart you've to restart the wzc. its the intel proset or the dell wlan utility. (it runs in the startup of msconfig) in order to disable it permanantly, right click on the intel proset/dell wlan icon in the system tray (bottom right hand corner next to the system date/time), choose the option that says use windows to manage wifi.
I do that ALWAYS!! each time that i restart my pc I have to run WZC and then "use Windows to manage my wireless network settings". this is that you're toldme??
its not a defective part denisse. its just the way you configure it. were you able to find an icon that says intel proset wireless near the system date/time (bottom right hand corner). just hover your mouse on all icons and the one that we need will say intel proset wireless. use the right mouse btn and click on it. it will give you and option that says "use windows to manage wifi". just click on it and it will come up with a question... "do you want windows to manage wireless?" say yes to that and the issue is fixed.
nope. thats not what we need to do. just do this step and we need to do it only once.

if not you might have to show these steps to a friend who is computer-inclined and get help.
ok. click on the start > all programs. we are looking for a program that says either Intel Proset Wireless or Dell Wlan Utility. see if you have this or anything similar to this. if you see Intel Proset click on it. look for an option that says " Let this Utility manage wireless". it would have a check mark. uncheck it. click on apply. ok. Restart the computer and when you are back at the desktop.
