Default Wireless utility disconnect

I have a Gateway MX6453 laptop. I also have a Linksys WRT54G 8.2Vy wireless router. Whenever I turn my pc on I have to start my WZC. I only need to do this at home with my router, anywhere else and it automatically detects the wireless connection. BTW my WZC is set on automatic. I called linksys and they tell me to call Gateway to have them tell me how to disconnect or remove the laptops wireless utility. My laptop is 2yrs old they tell me its no longer under warranty and I need to purchase tech support to the tune of $59 per 1/2hr, so on and so on. Now with this said I would be much more inclined to send a donation here than I would to give Gateway more money. I can't send $59 but I can at least throw a few bones that way for you folks always seem to help out. Advise is greatly appreciated. Jeff

Hi - Welcome to the forum...

What channel does the Linksys use?

Whatever it is try another one - 1, 6 or 11 I think.
