Wireless Group Policy using WPA-PSK and TKIP

Asked by coeurdcom in Active Directory

Tags: Microsoft, Windows Server 2003

Hello.

I have set up a Wireless Network Group Policy and applied it to a GPO that contains one laptop (for testing purposes).  After running gpupdate (while cabled to the network) I was able to connect wirelessly without problem.  However, after I uncabled and logged off I was unable to connect after re-logging on.  My question is this:  How do I configure the laptop to retain all of the settings (including PSK) so that I don't have to be cabled for login?  I can connect to the wireless network, but it will not pick up an IP address, which makes me believe the PSK is not being stored.  Additionally, when configuring the Group Policy, if I select WPA-PSK the check box with "Key is provided automatically" is checked and grayed out.  Am I missing another policy that would push the key out?  Is a login script necessary?
