Now, you know that "Current Bandwidth" is not what you want, right?
This just shows it is a 100Mbit connection.

It's a 32-bit unsigned value that is printed as a signed value, so the
minus sign is important. From Python, try
hex(2**32 - 1073738810)
You'll find it is C0000BC6, which is PDH_INVALID_DATA.
Perhaps Microsoft change the counter name in some way in Vista.
