Installing WEP Keys on Windows 7 during deployment

[Jeff K]

i have been trying for a couple of weeks now to try and deploy WEP keys to a windows 7 test machine. i have gone and tried to find some way of deploying them and thought i had it figured out by using a script. but either the script or something else is not working with each other. here is what i do for the script.

 

netsh wlan export profile name=”CorpWIFI”

' It will make a file called Wireless Network Connection-CorpWIFI.xml and copy to the c drive

netsh wlan add profile filename=”C:\Wireless Network Connection-CorpWIFI.xml”

netsh wlan connect CorpWIFI

 

after i do this it completes fine but it asks for the wep key. i have looked on various forums and i can not get this to work. any help would be great. i have tried on 3 different machines and all do the same thing.

as the others advised on Technet and Myitforum.com have you tried gpo's ? if not any reason why not ?

Probably this has been said on the Technet forum too, but I will say it anyway... SCCM will run your script with the SYSTEM account and the changes that you are trying to make are USER based. That's why you still have to configure the WEB key for every user.

It doesnt allow me to automatically set the wep key in the gpo if so i must be missing something. but i just need a way of doing a osd and having the wep key installed on the machine. is there a way to do this before the capture? if so, how do I do that i have tried and look for a simple way.
