longer network activation

Recommended Posts

Hi,

I am using XP with SP 3. I'm noticing that my network card is taking too long

for it to be activated. Because it takes about 7 or so minutes even after the system

has already started, it seems that the network activation always happens at last.

If there is an order of system services start up, how can I ensure the network starts

the first in XP Home?

Thanks.

Hi,

If I physically disconnect the network cable and reconnect it once the network connectivity icon

appears on the system tray, the reconnect happens almost immediately.

When there's no connectivity icon on the system tray, I even tried pinging the wireless router

and that works okay. Even the task manager shows that the network is in operational mode.

So, I just don't know what's causing this significant delay before the connectivity icon shows up

on the system tray. Until that happens, I can't connect to the Internet at all.

Thanks.
