wifi wont autoconnect while display is off

Recently my HTC Desire has stopped auto-connecting to my wifi network as soon as I am in range. It only connects when I press the power button to turn the display on (i.e. when it's awake). Previously it used to connect as soon as I was in range, even while the display was still off (i.e. when it was asleep).

I've disabled all apps I recently installed but it has not fixed the problem. If anyone has any suggestions or advice it would be much appreciated.
 
Not sure what it's like in a sense ROM but with most others you can go.
Settings /wireless /advanced/ sleep policy.

Then set it to never.
 
having the same issue myself. What router do you have? Mine is a netgear and is provided by Virgin. Not sure if it is the phone or the router.
