Windows 10 IoT Enterprise for Dell Wyse Thin Clients Administrator’s Guide

WiFi settings configured from Wyse Management Suite are not persistent across multiple Wyse 5070 thin clients

When you configure a WiFi connection on a Wyse 5070 Thin Client, it connects to a specific wireless network (SSID) without asking for the password. When the same configuration is exported to Wyse Management Suite and deployed to other Wyse 5070 Thin Clients, the configuration is applied and you are prompted to enter a password to connect to the same wireless network. To make the WiFi settings persistent, do the following:

1. Connect the Wyse 5070 Thin Client to the wireless network.
2. Run DWirelessProfileEditor.exeDWirelessProfileEditor.exe file.
   The Wireless Profile Password Editor window is displayed.
3. Browse to the destination path to save the profile as an xml file and click Save.
4. Click the Export WiFi Profiles button in the Wireless Profile Password Editor window.
5. From the Profiles drop-down list, select the profile to deploy the configuration.
6. Clear the Password field, and enter the password again.
7. Click Change Password.

   NOTE: Do not click the Export WiFi Profiles button again.
