Not sure if they'll get a pop-up, you'd have to test. But yes, you can use GPO to create the wireless connection, including SSID and security type. Just make sure to hit the box for "connect to this network even if not broadcasting"

Can this explicit entry of the SSID be scripted to automate across multiple systems ???
