Can't lock in wifi

[Em-Ess]

This is not a major hardship but still, I would like to know what the problem is and how to fix it. Whenever I wake up my laptop it does not automatically connect to my Wifi system. I have to wait few seconds, then click on the Wifi symbol on the menu bar and then click on the name of my Wifi system. I have gone to System Preferences and to the network symbol and tried to make the network name automatic. But I don't know how to lock that in: just clicking the "automatically join this network' doesn't hold. What am I doing wrong?

Thanks, Cory, as usual you were a big help. This seems to have done the trick.

Oops, spoke too soon. After sleeping for a few hours the computer did the same damn thing: needed me to click on the network. I guess I have to be resigned to it.
