point, it is displayed in the WiFi Networks list. To
associate with an <SSID not broadcast> network

Operating Mode
Network (Infrastructure): Connect to an access
point. An Infrastructure network consists of one or
more access points and one or more computers with
WiFi adapters. This connection is the type used in
home networks, corporate networks, hotels, and other
areas that provide access to the network and/or the
internet.
NOTE: Only Network (Infrastructure) is available
for administrator profiles (Pre-logon/Common and
Persistent profiles). See the
Administrator Tool for
more information.
Device to Device (ad hoc): Connect directly to other
computers in an ad hoc wireless network. This type of
connection is useful for connections between two or
more computers only. It does not provide access to
network resources or the internet.
Administrator Profile Type
(Visible only in Administrator
Tool)
Persistent: Persistent profiles are applied at boot
time or whenever no one is logged on the computer.
After a user logs off, a Persistent profile maintains a
wireless connection either until the computer is turned
off, or a different user logs on.
Pre-logon/Common: These profiles are only
available using the Administrator Tool. Pre-logon/
Common profiles are applied once a user logs on. The
connection is made as part of the Windows log-on
sequence (Pre-logon/Common). This profile is shared
by all users.

Launch), set a profile password (Password Protection),
