Open IBM Access Connections, Pull down Wireless Network, open Switch Wireless Location Profiles Automatically, and unselect Enable Automatic Wireless Location Profile Switching. This toggle defeats the built in feature which upon loss of signal with a wireless station turns the laptop radio off. My laptop radio now stays on all the time. And when I return to my home immediately picks up my wireless AP.
