Mapping A Share Fails to Connect At Startup

windows vista/7 sometimes seems to have a problem with your network coming as 'public' mode on startup, this often causes mapped drives to fail.
I don't know of any solution other than to wait a minute or 2 before logging in (so the network can come up and recognize your home network).
you can see if this might be happening, when you boot up mouse over the network icon on the tray, see if its unknown or public network, then after a few minutes it says home network, or something to that effect.
