I want AirPort to restore its network connection automatically at startup. Anybody know how to do this?

EDIT:
Note that under System Preferences --> Network --> AirPort, following: "After restart or wake from sleep:" I have checked "Join a specific network" and chosen my default (and only) configuration.

Yet it doesn't initiate that connection automatically on boot, which is what I want.

If I can't get this to work, my next course of action is to compose an AppleScript to be enabled by the Login Items preference pane. But I'd rather not.

I would reinstall Mac OS X. When you reinstall choose your wireless internet as your internet connection and enter your password if you have one. I have wireless internet with my netgear router and airport card in my iBook and I can't find anything in Mac OS X settings to have it automatically connect at startup so I'm guessing you have a system file that's corupted or something.

I even changed my settings to what you have and restarted. My connection came up just like it should.

I just did "join most recently used available network" with "remember password" checked, and this seems to work as it should. The network is available on restart. I may yet do an AppleScript just in case.
