Hello,
Just wondering if anyone has ever seen a laptop running windows 7 that would consistently try and identify on a network thats out of range? My laptop (2010 MBP running bootcamp 5.1) will regularly state "Identifying" on my home network when I turn it on at work and the home network is obviously out of range. I have to manually connect to the work network. Then when I get home my laptop will still show identifying on the work network even though it is well out of range. I then have to manually connect to my home network and visa versa. I can post more specifics if necessary.
