For some reason known only to themselves FS have decided that to gain access to wireless internet on their Amilo laptops (I have an Li2735) you have to turn it on via Fn + F1, it is not automatic.
I have got around this using a .vbs file which runs via Startup (actual file is in Prog Files with a shortcut to it in Startup). Basically the .vbs file runs automatically and conects up the wireless without the need to use Fn+F1.
The .vbs file content is as follows:
Set WshShell = WScript.CreateObject("WScript.Shell")
Set oExec = WshShell.Exec("C:\Program Files\Launch Manager\WisWBSet.exe")
do while WshShell.AppActivate("Wireless Status Option")=False
WScript.Sleep 100
loop
WScript.Sleep 100
WshShell.sendkeys("{TAB}{TAB}{LEFT}~")
My question is this, on occasions this runs fine and the wireless hooks up no problem, the GUI displays momentarily then disappears. On most occasions though the GUI hangs and I have to manually select WLAN then click to connect.
Any advice on how to stop this happening? I thought maybe it has something to do with when Startup actually runs in the start up sequence but don't know how to check this or alter it.
