GP software will not deploy - Network does not start in time

I have an IBM thinkpad r40 with built in wireless. The onboard Intel 10/100
nick died so I have a PCMCIA Linksys PCM200 10/100 nic installed. Non of my
GP managed software installs are deploying to this notebook which has a
fresh install of XP Pro SP2.

When the computer starts I can see in the Application log Event 1054 which
says that the domain contrller does not exist and the GP processing will be
aborted.

What I have done so far was to ping this computer while it is booting and I
saw that I do not get any type of response until the computer has been at
the Logon screen for a couple of seconds. I am guessing that the network is
not becoming ready before my GPs start to get applied. Is there a setting
to wait for the network to become ready?
