I hadn't even realized GPOs could be used to configure wireless. In
looking through the available options though, I don't see a way to set a
static WEP key. Is that possible?


Thanks,

James

What's funny is that I actually blogged about this in 2007 and
completely forgot about it:

Bottom line is that in order to see WPA2 as an option, you need to use
Vista or Server 2008 to edit the policy.

This fixed the ability to view the wireless object. (registering the
dll)

Is there any way to add wpa2 as one of my network authentication
options?

Just search that page for "wireless policy".

On a Wireless Network Policy, on the network authentication drop down
box how do I get wpa2?  As of right now all I see is open, shared, wpa,
and wpa-psk.  Also what dll do I need to register on my xp box so I can
view this policy object?

Thanks,
Scott
