Import or Export Profiles
This feature lets you import and export user-based profiles to and from the Profiles list. Wireless profiles can be
automatically imported into the Profiles list.
An administrator can set profiles to be imported automatically into the Profiles list. Intel PROSet/Wireless WiFi
Connection Utility monitors the import folder on your hard disk for new profile files. Only profiles that have been
enabled through Enable Auto-Import in the
Advanced Settings are automatically imported. If a profile of the
same name already exists in the Profiles list, you are notified to either reject the imported profile or accept it. If
accepted, the existing profile is replaced. All imported user-based profiles are placed at the bottom of the Profiles
List.
