Backup Wireless Settings

BokehBokeh Member Posts: 1,636 ■■■■■■■□□□
I need to find a way to backup the wireless settings for one of my users. They connect to networks at 7 different offices. Is there an easy way to do this? I haven't found anything online yet that allows this to be done quickly.

    The only way to really do it without using a third party app is ntbackup the system state.

    What OS?

    On Vista+ you can do
    netsh wlan export profile name=“x”
    netsh wlan add profile filename=“x.xml”

    I bet it gets saved in the registry somewhere. I wish I could be more help.
    Decide what to be and go be it.

    nice one dynamik, I vaguley remembered you could do it through netsh but couldn't remember the syntax. Regardless the system state will have it for XP too.

    @humble2007 I had a look through my registry and I can't find my wireless key (hashed and plain text) anywhere, I don't think it is stored in there, probably in a compiled binary file somewhere and netsh pulls it out.
