RE: Script to change Network Adapters Binding

2010-09-10 Thread Michael B. Smith 
The blog post is about changing network binding order.

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\Tcpip\Linkage
Bind -- reg_multi_sz

The Bind registry value contains a list of devices and that list is the 
registry binding order. That list looks something like the below (taken off my 
Server 2008 R2 server):

\Device\{17333B2B-417A-4067-AC98-B7EB24FCB339}
\Device\{23A51D9E-9FFA-4F32-8F67-B9C4B61E2FAD}
\Device\{9638CAB0-CFC8-433F-B189-099B0518F380}
\Device\{A25EC12E-404C-4234-A4F9-18D9D8BAD79C}
\Device\{E7B7845A-A963-4085-8B4E-276F6D19A74B}
\Device\{D887DA91-0415-470E-AAD9-CACB2319BC87}
\Device\{4034AA4F-1E2D-4F84-A244-D94355DC2BD8}
\Device\{F41AB86C-A9BC-4513-9303-075EF4F77E03}
\Device\{EAFA97BD-3969-48A0-9421-5ECB81C1BB18}

You have to take the GUIDs and look them up to find the device names. That 
information is at:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Network\{4D36E972-E325-11CE-BFC1-08002BE10318}\\Connection
Name -- reg_sz

Which easily lets me figure out:

\Device\{17333B2B-417A-4067-AC98-B7EB24FCB339} -> Local Area Connection* 9
\Device\{23A51D9E-9FFA-4F32-8F67-B9C4B61E2FAD} -> Local Area Connection 7
\Device\{9638CAB0-CFC8-433F-B189-099B0518F380} -> Local Area Connection 6
\Device\{A25EC12E-404C-4234-A4F9-18D9D8BAD79C} -> Local Area Connection 3
\Device\{E7B7845A-A963-4085-8B4E-276F6D19A74B} -> Local Area Connection 5
\Device\{D887DA91-0415-470E-AAD9-CACB2319BC87} -> Local Area Connection 4
\Device\{4034AA4F-1E2D-4F84-A244-D94355DC2BD8} -> Local Area Connection 2
\Device\{F41AB86C-A9BC-4513-9303-075EF4F77E03} -> Local Area Connection
\Device\{EAFA97BD-3969-48A0-9421-5ECB81C1BB18} -> Wireless Network Connection

Which is exactly the binding order shown in Advanced network properties on my 
computer.

If you want a different binding order, then re-write the array in the order you 
want it. That's what the blog post does.

Here is another way to get done what you want:

Thanks Michael, I have already saw these posts. Does anybody tried this with 
these articles. Sorry, I don't have C++ programming skills.

Set_Wireless_NIC_IPMetric.vbs I have tried but it's not changing Binding order.

above post also not changing Network Adapter binding order.

Hi,

How can I change Network Adapter binding for Win XP/Vista/7. I know the 
settings can be found under below reg key, but how to set "Local Area 
Connection" as first & "Wireless Connection" as second connection.

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\services\Tcpip\Linkage\Bind

With below command we can check the Device ID of Network adapters. But not 
getting how to use below output of Local area connection to change above Reg 
key sequence.

wmic nicconfig get Description,SettingID

Kindly tell me if another way is there to do this.
