Good morning

i am currently enrolling some Zebra TC77 devices using afw#mobicontrol.

as part of this process the devices are connected to wifi first.

the profiles are downloaded and the device is enrolled as expected which include the APN settings for the sim.

ideally i need a script i can run whih simply turns off WIFI. this will allow the SIM to connect as the APN settings are now there.

however i have tried the following scripts

Hi Daryl,

Thank you for posting on SOTI Central.

My understanding is that the 'setradioenable' script is only compatible for Android Classic. Personally I wouldn't recommend disabling WiFi via a script as this could become hard to keep track of in the future, for instance if you need to re-enable it again. 

As an alternative, perhaps you could create a 'staging' device group where WiFi is enabled and gives devices the chance to install all necessary Profiles which are applied to the group. Once the Profiles are installed you can move them into a 'production' group which has the same Profiles assigned, but with an extra Feature Control applied to Disable WiFi.

You can also add a Filter Criteria to the Profile with 'APN contains...' to further restrict which devices it gets assigned to.

Kind regards,
