Hi, My apologies. Yes, the MacOS X name is Login Items in the Accounts system preferences. The Login Items is a tab for a given selected account. My brain still fixes on the old OS 9 name for that, aka startup items. Actually, think it may have been called that under 10.2. Regardless, you can use that to have items mount upon login.
The other part of your question I did not answer. What happen upon loss of the wireless connection to a mounted volume. Usually it will become unmounted and there's no automatic retry that I am aware of. To address this, you may want to add an alias of that volume on the desktop or in the favorites sidebar. That way, access will be just a click away. --Scott >Hum, I looked in system preferences, but I don't have a start up or a >start items.
