Windows XP network settings

[dhruvchandna]

Hi, I would like to write a program for Windows XP that will change the following network settings depending upon the network I am going to log on into. 1. I.P. Address 2. Default Gateway 3. DNS Server Address. I need this I log on to multiple networks and have to manually go and configure the settings for each network. Thanks in advance. Regards, Dhruv Chandna

Im quite sure that you can change such settings via CMD in netsh, or just do start run netsh to see what you can do. You could then create a batch file wich calls the right commands, or make a C++ Console app to do it for you...

I suggest you start by writing the pseudo-code first, then maybe looking to see if you can do this using a batch file written with Powershell.

You can also do this on VBScript.

Hi, Thanks a lot. I made a batch file using the netsh commands and it runs smoothly. Regards, Dhruv

Thanks a lot for you help. I implemented it using a batch file with netsh commands. But it would be great if you can just tell me how to implemented using VBScript. I am just a little curious to know.
