XP clients failing to run startup scripts because wireless Radius NPS server connects after login

Hi,

Sorry sent from my phone so the body of text didn't attach.

We have setup a radius server using NPS and PEAP to connect our wireless laptops. Windows 7 machines connect fine but the XP clients often on logon do not run the startup scripts or setup the shares (throwing up a not available error). Often when it does this the wireless connesction is down but reconnects shortly after.

My question is how can we stop the wireless connection from dropping out so that the startup scripts etc. run without issue? Is there a way to ensure the laptop is connected when the user is not connected (sometimes when logging in we recieve the 'domain not available error' but shortly after can login as normal without reboot)?

Our succrent setup is:

Server 2008 running NPS server
1 AP running Radius with WPA2 (TKIP + AES)
The wireless settings are sent out via GPO in the wireless security settings

XP GPO settings

EAP type - PEAP

Auth Mode - User Transmit (Seemed a bit flaky with user or computer)

Authenticate as computer when info... checked

XP seems to work best with the 'authenticate as guest' enabled.

Any ideas,

Thanks,

Jon
