Unattended wireless network connection

[jamesagmoore]

First, on a "master" pc setup the wireless connection as desired

Save the current wireless network config to an xml file:

netsh wlan export profile

In the unattended scripts, restore the wireless network settings:

netsh wlan add profile filename="PUT YOUR FILENAME HERE.xml"

does this work across diferent wireless cards?

[fizban2]

as long as the network card is recoginzed by vista it should, i have had it work across intel pro and dell wireless cards

Is it possible to do this in WinPE part of install so that Dynamic Update works?

[Dobby]

if I do

netsh wlan add profile filename="PUT YOUR FILENAME HERE.xml"

from WinPE command line I get

The following command was not found: wlan add profile filename="PUT YOUR FILENAME HERE.xml"

can I do this from the Shift F10 cmd prompt?

[Dobby]

I'm guessing maybe my wifi drivers did not load. If I type netsh then ? On my workstation I can see wlan described but on the other machine it's not listed. ****.

This works well. Thanks!

I do this via GPO. Works fine for me.
