I am not sure if the chassis type reported in Win32_SystemEnclosure is
dependent on whether or not the system is in a docked state. It's a long
shot, but it might work. You'd have to test it out and see.

Thanks for the idea, though what I need is to have it disabled when the
laptop is docked.  Do you think it will do this with WMI filter?

Not sure if this would work, but it might be possible to use a WMI
filter to check the chassis type and then apply a GPO to disable the
Wireless Zero Configuration service.

 

Otherwise, I don't believe you can actually control hardware profiles
through Group Policy. At least not natively anyway. There may be some
third party stuff that does it, but I can't say for sure.

Hi, 

 

Is there a GPO to set hardware profiles? 

 

I need to set up our laptop with a "docked" profile where it shuts the
wireless network adapter off while it is docked in the docking station. 

 

Thanks!

 

Piet
