Wait until wifi network is up before mapping network drives
I have a slight issue with Windows 7 in which upon startup, Windows attempts to map my network drives before the wifi connection is successfully up and running. Is there any way to force Windows to only connect network drives after a successful network connection
has been made? Thanks.

How are your drives mapped? Login script pushed by DC?...

The drive I am having trouble with was simply mapped using the Windows 'Map Network Drive' panel, in which I specified 'Reconnect at Logon'

Ok but, correct me if I'm wrong, the mapped drive is accessible once the wifi connection is up? You don't have anything to do?

If this is like XP. Maybe. If you use a normal MS call it will prompt for password even if login information was saved. Also things like quickbooks that use some other call to the shared drive just reports the files are not found. After
then when you try to access the drive again in XP you get a error saying the resource is attempting connection under another ID.
