Push AD credentials to laptops to automatically connect to corporate wireless networks

Question

Push AD credentials to laptops to automatically connect to corporate wireless networks

Anonymous

We would like to push AD Credentials to Corporate Laptops so users will automatically connect to the Corporate wireless networks, which we have two.

Currently users can connect with AD Credentials, but when they restart, they have to reconnect to WiFi.

Thanks,

Chad

Are you talking about AD or Azure AD? Have you looked at deploying certificates to your devices? There are a couple of Radius-as-a-Service solutions that make life a lot easier.

Thank you for your post!

I understand that you'd like to push Active Directory credentials to your corporate devices so that users can automatically connect to the corporate wireless network(s), as of right now users can connect with their AD credentials but after restarting their laptops, they have to re-connect to the Wi-Fi.

To gain a better understanding of your issue:

When talking about Active Directory (AD), are you referring to Azure AD or Windows Active Directory?

After users restart their devices and have to re-connect, are they able to connect using the AD credentials?

Can you share any documentation or screenshots of your issue?

Any additional information would be appreciated! Thank you for your time and patience throughout this issue.

Hi James,

Sorry I have not responded yet. We have 2 domain controllers onsite that are responsible for Active Directory. They also sync to Azure in the Cloud.

I will try to get a screenshot of a laptop after restarting that shows how the user is not automatically connected to the Wi-Fi after restarting and upload that screenshot.

Let me know if you have any other questions.

Thanks,

Chad
