Any way to import or export a wireless setting?

Archived from groups: microsoft.public.windows.networking.wireless (More info?)

We have a large number of XP Pro machines that need to have our wireless
network added.

Right now, we have a 10-page document instructing users how to set each tab
of the wireless network setup manually.
(ESSID, PEAP, Connect Automatically, infrastructure mode..etc.....etc..)

Has anyone been able to put these settings in a registry export or other
type of file for folks to load a wireless network in one step?

Thank you, Diamontina,

I suppose you are correct, but this is exactly the type of solution I was
hoping to avoid.

It seems that there should be one registry hive.... or a "Wireless config
wizard" that could import and export a config in a file.

If this were only UNIX.....

Thanks for the help though.
