For some reason, my Windows 7 laptop has stopped auto connecting to my home wifi. Have checked network & sharing thingybob, and network is at the top of the list, and auto connect checked.
Any ideas please?
I didn't say it was your ******* fault, I said I was blaming you!

Rebooted Router?
Re-entered Wifi details?
Ditched Wifi and tried via Homeplug?

Embarrassed... reboot of PC and router sorted it. I think it was something to do with no rebooting PC for weeks. had no choice, after posting this post all my internet stopped.
Sorry and thanks!

Do you have a static IP for your laptop? I think this might happen when you drop a connection and some other device poaches the IP address.

I'd dissagree... why should the fact that neither have been rebooted mean that failure for the wifi to work as expected is a user error?
From experience the one thing which windows 7 seems to really fail at is wifi connections. It only seems to appear on older hardware though.
My 5 year old laptop has intermittant problems with the home network as does the clients laptop, the wifes brand new netbook on the other hand doesn't.
