Name Description
Auto Connect
Automatic (Default): Select to have the Intel(R) PROSet/
Wireless WiFi Connection Utility connect automatically to this
profile when it is in range.
On Demand: Select to prevent automatic connection of a
profile when the network is in range. For example, if there is a
cost for a wireless connection and you did not want to connect
automatically when in range. In the WiFi Networks list and in
the Profiles list, the network will be noted with this icon,
indicating On Demand connection (also called manual
connection).
To connect to the network:
1. Select the network from the WiFi Networks list.
2. Click Connect.
Auto Import
Allows a network administrator to easily move the selected
profile to other computers. When the exported file is placed in
the WiFi\AutoImport directory on another computer, the WiFi
connection utility automatically imports the profile.
NOTE: This feature is only available when configuring a user
profile. It is not available when configuring Administrator
Profiles.
