Well it does work but doesn't connect automatically.

You can try to run netsh connect

Or you could use the WLAN profiles manager to connect.

Ok. I should have said on a remote reboot. If I have the computer I just plug it in.

While performing an SR task?
If so, just add a 3rd party app with a netsh connect command after "reboot in safemode with networking" and it will connect before to continue.

On a side note (nothing to do with safemode but it could be usefull for you or anybody else, even in this case), to be sure i'm always connected before launching uvk (and because i'm lazy and don't want to do it manually ^^) I always start uvk by launching a batch file with that code on it :

Code: Select all

SETLOCAL enabledelayedexpansion
FOR /f "tokens=2 delims=:" %%i in ('netsh wlan show interfaces ^| findstr /i /c:"Nom"') DO (
	SET inter=%%i
	if EXIST "%~dp0wlan.xml" netsh wlan add profile filename="%~dp0wlan.xml" interface="!inter:~1!"
)
(of course it is only useful if you always work on the same wifi network, and you will have to export the profile of that network and put it in the same dir than the script or modify the path in the script)

PS: oh, and you probably would have to modify "Nom"' by "Name" (or what it is called in your language :) "Nom" is for french)
