Hope you mean ADK! Supposedly, WinPE4 has native support for wireless and it was on my project list at one point but I removed it recently. Does IPCONFIG see your wireless NIC?

Thanks Tripredacus, you're right, it's windows ADK. As I know, winpe3.0 provide good support for wireless. So I would like to support implanted into winpe4.0. To support wireless appear to have wlansvc service, I have tried with wireless related documents copied into the corresponding folder and import the registry key to solve, but still does not start the service. Through the ipconfig command I can see the wireless NIC, can you give me some help? Thanks again~

Do you get an IP address for your WLAN NIC?

I can get IP address under winpe3.0 but it's not winpe4.0. It seems to be under the winpe4.0 must have wlansvc service....

802.1x support (for network security) isn't the same as wireless. As far as I know, there's no support for wireless devices in WinPE by default, and to get them there would require porting the wireless networking service(s) as well as a bit more of the network stack. Might be an interesting project, but it'd be just that.
