Does a group Policy exist to allow users to disable Wireless Network
adapters without the UAC logon popup. It is preferred that network be
disabled when not in use while in the wild. Ideas???

Thanks in advance.

I *believe* you can still make them network operators to allow them to do
this. Try that (and let us know if it worked). Otherwise, you can obviously
still use a hardware switch to do it.

This allows user to change network properties, but not enable or disable NIC
itself.

Thanks for the suggestion.

Hmm. Making them network operators worked in XP. I guess you'd have to
resort to disabling it with a hardware switch. Most laptops seem to have them
now.
