Wi-Fi persistence after reboots

I am trying to find a way to persist the Wi-Fi profile after I enter it (this is a home Wi-Fi) that would also work for the Admin account. I am finding that when trying to install application from WMS to a managed IoT device, the system must turn off the write filter and then reboot which caused the Wi-Fi to then not be set.  Any suggestions?  We are trying to test these 5470 AIO (IoT) devices in users homes so we can't create a Wi-Fi profile that is the same for all.  Thanks.

If you don't have a lot of units, try disabling the write filter then putting the wifi password in and store it in profile.  Do this for both the Admin and User accounts.  Then renable the write filter and then use WMS to push the wifi profile settings for the "enabled" Admin and User.

If you have a lot of units then there's no real way to maintain settings when deploying.  I had a ticket opened for this issue a while back.  Dell's response was that this was supposed to be fixed on an upcoming WDA update.

Thanks for the link.   Dell support did get this to me as well after they were able to replicate my issue.  These exclusions did work for me.
