Networking – How to disable WiFi when computer is connected to LAN with wire, using GPO

group-policywireless-networking

Is anyone of you know how to disable, thru a GPO, the Wireless connection as soon as the computer is connected to the LAN with a wire.

By example, a user is at home with his laptop, connected to his home wifi connection. He leaves and comes to the office but the Wifi is still enabled. He plugs the ethernet cable in the computer and then, both wifi and wire connection are enable.

I would like to apply a GPO that does this.

Unfortunately this is not possible to do exclusively with Group Policy. You will need to consider one of the other 3rd party solutions to accomplish what you want. (Those, however could be controlled through GP if you like?).

Here is a supporting TechNet thread.
