If it works at all it will only show the status of the device when inventory
ran. How helpful is that?

Subject: RE: [mssms] Query Help
Let me explain what I have been tasked with and maybe someone can offer some
ideas how to best accomplish.
Our company is being divestured and our current “mothership” wants their in
house written software uninstalled. The software disables wireless if
connected wired and vice versa. When uninstalling the software, the adapters
will remain in whatever state they are currently in. I have been asked to
Create a query that list all devices with wireless adapters. The Query needs
to show the current status of the wireless adapters to give us a count of how
many are disabled vs enabled.
Any ideas or thoughts on gathering the data?

maybe a configItem? looking in win32_networkadapter, where name like
'%wireless%', you want to know the NetEnabled value (True vs False). test,
test, test. Up to you if you want "TRUE to mean "compliant" or FALSE to mean
"compliant".
it'll depend if you have lots of nic adapters that have name like wireless-you
may get more than 1 reply per box; which might not help you. in case it might
be a bigger deal to implement because of the multiple rows of results; probably
a custom configuration.mof and then a custom hinv import. It's all
possible--just "fun" to do.
