connection

hello,

how can i restrict the wireless connection on a notebook to a specific
router

thanks

uncheck the option to automatically connect to non preferred
networks and only list the network you want to connect to (delete
the unwanted ones that may already be in the list). instructions
depend on whether XP or Vista.

Thanks,

It is XP, and I want to know how to avoid the user to connect to other
wireless router except a specific one.

thanks,

see figure 3. remove unwanted networks, then go to the advanced tab
and UNcheck automatically connected to non preferred networks.

if the user finds another SSID and has the right credentials, he
will be able to configure and connect to it. I thought you wanted to
remove unwanted SSID's from the list and remove the ability to
automatically connect. this sounds like you want to restrict access
completely and not allow the user to configure other networks. is
this what you are trying to do? you could try establishing a
connection to the "right" network and then turning off the WZC
service. don't know if that will work or not.
