When my Windows 7 Starter netbook boots up and after everything is loaded, it takes about five minutes before the network icon near the clock becomes functional. When there's an available wi-fi signal (which automatically connects to my netbook as preconfigured) after the boot, my netbook seamlessly connects to it even if the network icon cannot be clicked or accessed. (The icon is shown to be loading for about five minutes.) During this time, when I go to Network and Sharing Center, it takes the same time to load. So even while the icon and the Center cannot be accessed, I can surf the Internet. When my netbook was still new, it didn't have this issue. How do I fix this?

Check is the services configuration. You can launch The following services must be started in automatic mode (not delayed or manual): Netman Netprofm Eaphost WlanSvc DHCP (if needed) If you have some useless services started or started in automatic instead of delayed or manual this may also slow down the services loading. This must be checked. To find some hints about services check (with caution) Black Viper for services configurations... Please take note that other conditions may slow down the startup in general and the WiFi stuff in particular such as too many programs, drivers, etc at startup OR bad maintenance: fragmented HD, drivers with errors, etc. Check this (with caution) with MS TechNet Sysinternal's Autoruns |
