How to get network connection name

[s196675m]

When I open the network connection from the control panel, I can see several connecton for differnt network interface. example "Local Area connection"; I want to get this connection name == "Local Area connection" == programatically. For local machine it is possible using NetworkInterface Class but I am trying to get it for a remote machine. NetworkInterface class can not used for remote machine. I used WMI for remote machine connection configuration but I am able to get all related information for any interface but no property is found in Win32_NetworkAdapterConfiguration class which is directly related to my requirement. Caption, Name, and other property gives me some other information but not the thing I am looking for. Any idea, hint will be helpful. Thank you

Cant you just do a file load and put the file of the Local Area Connection into your program, ive dont that for my internet debugger thing :P that might i work, i might be able to help you though.

Did you look at the WMI Win32_NetworkAdapter class??

Yes, I did. Thanks

Yes, I did and I have found the property. Unfortunately I overlooked this property in my previous investigation. The Property name is "NetConnectionID" of "Win32_NetworkAdapter" class. Thank you
