Connecting to a Wireless Network

The wireless connection icon () appears in the upper-right corner of the Full Disk Encryption preboot logon when the endpoint has a detected wireless card installed. If there is no wireless card detected, the wireless network icon does not display.

Note:

The Full Disk Encryption preboot cannot automatically detect the authentication for WEP security. If the authentication type is WEP-OPEN or WEP-PSK, manually specify the security type.

If your enterprise policy does not allow Wi-Fi configuration, the All Access Points and Disconnect buttons will be disabled.

For more information, see the Administrator's Guide for PolicyServer MMC.
