Wifi – How to add wireless profiles during deployment via MDT

mdtwifi

I'm using MDT 2012 to deploy Windows 7 Pro x64. How can I include wireless profiles for several different WiFi networks? There is no domain, all machines are on a workgroup using group policy is not an option.

Is there a Task Sequence, script or other option to automatically connect to WiFi networks?

Perhaps you could try exporting the profiles according to linked process and the running the exported executable during a task sequence upon deployment.

There's also a command line option to export/import wireless profile using netsh:

Hope that helps.

Initial Deployment-MDT+WDS

As discussed in the comments, MDT creates two boot images: a 32-bit boot image and a 64-bit boot image. You must use the 32-bit boot image to deploy 32-bit operating systems, and you must use the 64-bit boot image to deploy 64-bit operating systems.

When you mismatch the bit-width of the boot image with respect to the bit-width of the operating system that you are trying to deploy (e.g., booting from a 32-bit boot image but trying to deploy 64-bit Windows 10), MDT hides the mismatched bit-width's task sequences from you automatically.

Powershell – Import Powershell AD Module during MDT Task Sequence

When you're not logged on as a domain user, you need to explicitly instantiate a PSDrive and then run *-AD* commands from there:

Import-Module ActiveDirectory -WarningAction SilentlyContinue
New-PSDrive -Name AD -PSProvider ActiveDirectory -Server <your DC> -Root //RootDSE/ -Credential $cred
Set-Location AD:
