    Start wireless network as service, so I can log into PDC network.

    I have 2 pcs. one running 2003 server, one running XP pro. Both use wireless network cards.
    I have set the server up correctly.
    Now, when I get to the login screen on my XP Pro machine it asks me for username and password and domain...ok, this is what you'd expect.
    BUT I cannot log into the domain since my wireless network card has not been initialised, and thus cannot see the network. I have to log into my local PC account and then connect to the PDC network once my wireless card has connected to the wireless router.

    SO, how can I get my wireless network to start when I get to the XP login screen?

    Just add a network ID (it's under system props., computer name)

    What is the make of your wireless network card. Most wireless NIC's have an option in the software control panel which allows you to logon to a wireless network prior to logon.
