Prevent access to specific SSID

We are using a GPO to push down the settings for our wireless, it pushes down
the name of the SSID and puts the security certificate on the computers and
all the computers can connect to the wireless. Our problem is that some of
the times some computers will connect to our guest network instead of our
preferred network.

How do we prevent our users from connecting to the guest network SSID?

Thanks for the help,
Mike

If you remove the SSID from their prefferred list of networks then they
shouldnt connect to it.

You can set the SSID's in the order that you want, in a GPO.

See if this helps.

James,

We only have the one SDID in this list for them.
