FBWF & Manage Wireless Networks - Help

Question

Hello,

I use FBWF on my WES7 images and i want save the wirless networks profils in the Manage Wireless Networks menu.

But I can't do it because I don't find all registry keys to be added into the Registry Filter.

My configuration :

Fbwfmgr.exe /enable
Fbwfmgr.exe /addvolume C:
Fbwfmgr.exe /addexclusion c: \ProgramData\Microsoft\Wlansvc

In Registry Filter :

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\NetworkList
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\HomeGroup

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\ProfileList

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\ControlSet001\Services\Tcpip\Parameters
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\ControlSet002\Services\Tcpip\Parameters

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\Tcpip\Parameters

With this configuration it does not work, the networks is not stored.

But if i add in the FBWF exclusion list the hives path (%SystemRoot%\System32\Config) it's OK.

What are the keys that have been forgotten? And All keys is good ?

Thank You for your help.

Bye.

Answer 2

Hi Sean,

What is the device driver servcie for the wireless card ?

I added the Wireless Networking Package and the driver for my wifi card (Atheros AR9285).

I can connect to wifi access point but when i restart the PC (with FBWF enable) it does not automatically reconnect to the previous access point.
And the Manage Wireless Networks menu is empty.

Thank's for your help Sean,

Bye.
