    Can the 'Mobile AP' part of Easy Settings be run separately on Win 7 startup?

    Hi all, I'm trying to get the Mobile AP section of Easy Settings to default as on when I start Win 7.
    A bit of a pain having to start ES up then click through to the Mobile AP & switch it on every time I boot the laptop!
    Cheers,
    Nic

    I suspect Samsung didn't anticipate anyone wanting the AP turn on automatically after reboot.

    What happens after sleep or hibernation?

    Hi John,
    I've never got my laptop to work brilliantly with IRST so I tend to shut it down when I've finished with it (and I don't use it all that often) but it looks like after sleep, the AP stays on.....
    As you say, probably not a common request to have it switch on at startup...!
    I've found the .exe file in the Easy Settings folder (MobileAPset.exe) but I can't get that to do anything :-(

    Kind regards,
    Nic

    It might be easier to debug IRST. See this thread. Intel released a version 2 which is a lot less buggy but I don't think Samsung ever put it into SW Update.
