Auto Config SSID/WPA2 Settings for WiFi usersWe would like to create a executable or bat file that would allow for users
to auto config Wireless setting using WPA2. The current process takes about 9-10 steps for users to perfrom within the wireless setting utility and our novice users are getting confused and frustrated. Again, is there a exe, script or bat file that can be created that people could download from the web that would auto config a windows machine for the SSID and wpa2 settings have been establised by our Network admins? Would would like minimum client interaction once the script is executed. Terry wrote:

wizard. I am looking for something more of "behind the scenes" I do not want the users to have to do anything, other then kick off the script/program...Are you saying that this will do what I need? Please advise. Thank you for your time.

network. I like the USB drive approach, however it does not allow me to config the EAP encryption type (PEAP) or select to validate server certficate, etc. Can you send examples of the wsetting.cfg file that would include these XML elements?

The Wireless Network Setup Wizard is designed for the home user, to help configure shared keys, i.e., WPA-PSK or WPA2-PSK. You seem to need something to deal with a corporate environment, at least that's what I take from your mention of PEAP and servers. At least as of 2 years ago (12/7/04), "The Windows XP SP2 version of the Wireless Network Setup Wizard does not support the configuration of 802.1X authentication settings." Instead, see this MS Cable Guy article, that explains how to use the Wireless Network (IEEE 802.11) Policies Group Policy extension or Wireless Provisioning Services. http://www.microsoft.com/technet/abouttn/flash/promo/lettertoeditor/lte120704.mspx -- Lem MS MVP -- Networking To the moon and back with 64 Kbits of RAM and 512 Kbits of ROM. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Apollo_Guidance_Computer
