[SOLVED] Laptop slow to connect to home Wi-Fi

[Deb 630]

I have an Asus k53e and I'm running Windows 7. When I boot up the laptop it takes 2 to 3 minutes for the laptop to actually connect to my home Wi-Fi. I went in through device manager and the wireless adapter, and unchecked the box that said "allow the computer to put this to sleep", but nothing changed.

I tried searching for an answer but the only common reply is what you have already done so maybe you need to look elsewhere on your machine for a problem. First either press reset button on your adapter or uninstall everything that lets you get on internet and start again.

Next , as soon as you get to desktop bring up task manager and look how many processes you have running in the background , they could be delaying your computer connecting.

Look in start menu , how many items do you have set to launch at start up , this could also slow things down. i only have my anti virus and sound card set to run at boot up.

When you set up your wi fi connection did you use a " secure connection " code to stop others in your area stealing use of your internet connection , if somebody is running off your set up that will also effect what you do.
