I have an local IT policy in my company, that users cannot belong to the
local administrators group on their PC's. That is fine while the user is at
the office, But if the users travels and and needs to setup a wireless
connection to another network(Hotel Room, Home Office, etc..) They will need
to be an admin to setup there wireless connection on there laptop. Does
anyone have a good solution that they would recommend to give the user
temporary admin rights to setup the wireless connection? This would be the
only application that they would need to run as a local admin.

Since this is a local IT policy, they should not enforce it on users they
are unable to support while they are on travel.
As a workaround, they can let you to create a local admin account.
