You can right-click the connection and create a shortcut of this connection, which will be placed on the desktop.

Then you can place the shortcut in the startup folder of the start menu..

Hope it helps

You may also find this app very usefull for VPN purpose
UGD Software - Products - VPN Watcher
it stops/pauses selected applications when your vpn connection is down for some reason
works on all Win7/Vista versions

this worked for me with poker software

ok - i'm picking up an old thread, but:

how to make win7 automatically connect to a VPN with a trigger being NOT system startup, but internet connection having been established.

i have to work on a location where wifi is intermittent and non-VPN connection useless. so every time when wifi drops and comes back it's a bit of a pain to have to restart the VPN as well.

alas - can "internet connection" be a scheduler trigger?
