Internet won't connect automatically?

I have a Dell Latitude E5500 that I got from my school. I didn't use it for awhile because I couldn't figure out how to connect to the internet. I called Dell to get some answers, so they told me to go to Start>Control Panel>Administrative Tools>Services>Windows Zero Configuration>Start then go to Control Panel>Network Connections>Wireless Network Connections>Properties>Set as primary connection.

It gets onto the internet, but I don't know how to make it come on automatically. Can someone help me... I'm thinking it's an easy fix, but I don't know how to do it. I've tried clicking some kind of box that said something about making it an automatic connection.

HELP MEEEEEEEE!

 

If you have that set as your primary connection, it should be automatic

 

Ask your school?

 

I have tried setting it as my primary option... As far as I know, it's my primary connection. My school doesn't know at all, it's homeschooling... they just give out the computers. I hate calling Dell because half the time it's some foreign dude I can't understand or they put me on hold for long periods of time.

 

In control panel under / network and internet connections/ internet options/ Connections tab

make sure never dial a connection is the one that is checked
Apply/ ok
