(Seemingly) Simple Question - Save Network settings to Flash Drive?
 

Is there a way to save my existing wireless network settings to my flash drive?

I know that when setting up a new wireless network, there is an option to save the config onto a flash drive and make it able to automatically apply the settings on a new PC. But is it possible to do so with existing networks?

So far my web searches have proved fruitless. As always, all help is appreciated.

Wow - 36 views and no responses?

Is it just a stupid question or am I barking up the wrong tree?

Not network savvy and not sure if I totally get this, but it may work. :D

I dont know what you use, but at home I use a linksys router and I use the EasyLink Advisor (a program I d/l) to save my wireless settings (including security information) to my flash stick to transfer to the other computers in the house once I have it set up the way I want

jewels: I did come across that link, but in my current situation I can't just do that.

Thanks Shani. :)

I'm busy downloading the application now. It just shocks me that windows doesn't have something built-in that can do the same thing.

One of my colleagues in Security, however, said that it is possible in Windows - he just can't remember how. Apparently it's just very counter-intuitive.

36 views and no responses could be caused by a seemingly vague subject line ;)

I was one of them, but didn't have an answer, so nothing to post really.

I'll have to remember that for next time then. :)

Doesn't explain this one though.

:oogle:

I've never used it but XP does have the function built in
