We just got a docking station for my wife's HP Compaq 6535b Notebook PC (XP, SP3) and the setup is as easy and obvious as expected. Here's my problem though -- when we dock the laptop, the wireless adapter turns off. This poses a problem for us as we don't have an easy way to 'wire' the dock to the modem.
If we have the laptop open, we can push the wireless button at the top to turn the wireless off, then back on and the wireless works from there, but the resolution on the external monitor switches to match the laptop - not very convenient (or pretty).
I'm sure there has to be an option somewhere to allow the wireless to stay enabled when docked, but I sure can't find it. Can anyone help me out?
