I'm using Compaq CQ60-101AU laptop with Windows 7. If i'm using WiFi or Bluetooth, there is a button next to Power Button. But After restart or shut down, the wifi or buetooth turns off and i've press the wifi button again. So if i want to make it switched on automatically even after restart, how to do it?

 

In Brief: When i turn on my laptop i have to push a button to turn on my wireless and would like to have my wifi turn on automatically when i turn on my laptop.

The Wifi turning off by itself can be because of – a conflicting wireless connection manager or wrong settings of Windows Wireless Zero Configuration Utility. Check if any third parties wireless connection manager is installed in the unit and remove it from Programs and Features in Control Panel. Click Start->in the search box enter “services.msc” -> in the new windows find the wireless zero configuration utility and set it to automatic.

My bad ... it is called WLAN AutoConfig in WIN7 units. Here is a picture for your reference.

The "WLAN AutoConfig" is set Automatic only(by default)

Please give a good solution for this Question, because there are many others(with different models or laptops or brands) want this question to be solved!

PROBLEM SOLVED!

 

I had this problem too. You need the HP Wireless Assistant for Windows 7- ftp://ftp.hp.com/pub/softpaq/sp44501-45000/sp44700.exe

Once installed, open the HP Wireless Assistant and click Properties button. Check the box next to "Independent controls for installed wireless devices." Then click "Turn All On" button. On next boot it will be enabled!

Cannot understand why there are so many users of HP Laptops having wi fi connectivity problems. My HPPavilion dv6-6135 has a new Ralink adapter, all settings set to automatic, yet after waking from sleep mode, won't connect. Have to use either windows or hp network trouble shooting to reset everything and then I connect. Sad HP cannot resolve this problem.
