Changing NIC speed and duplex option

T

Tom Ker

We've got a project about to start to change all our PCs from 10/Full to
Auto. Thankfully we only have 3 or 4 different NICs in our environment, but
we have 1,000s of them so I want to write a script that will do the change
for me.

Can someone point me to some code to get me started with this. please?

Thanks,

Tom

Tom,

I use the following script to set our NIC's to 100/FULL, I'm sure it can
be adapted to set yours to Auto.

The script scans the registry to obtain each NIC that is installed. For each
NIC that is found, the script will locate and apply the appropriate registry
value you define in a separate .ini file (SpdDplx.ini). The .ini file
contains the registry value for each NIC based on the vendor ID and device
ID as found in the ComponentID registry value for a given NIC. Here is my
example, keep in mind that the values listed in the .ini file are for
setting the NIC's to 100/FULL, you will need to add/edit your entries for
the NIC's in your environment to the values that will set the NIC's to
Auto.

SpdDplx.ini

Help!

I have been tasked with the same request. Change all known NIC's to auto. I have followed this post and am hopeful on a solution. I have added one line to the SpdDplx.ini file:

"1"="10 Mb"
"2"="100 Mb"

Basedd on this information, is the line in the ini right? Do I need to remove the ";"?

Do we know who B-Mann is? :)

Try to edit your ini file. Delete the last blank line and create new one. (due to end of file information)

Do NOT delete the ;

lines in .ini file starting with ; are ignored... in the script.
Its only NIC information.

I have a very simple solution which implies to know its environment well. Th
is example modifies in Auto (strValue = 0) for Intel Nic(SpeedDuplex) and Br
oadcom NIC (RequestedMediaType).
Can be used with computer GPO.

Const HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE = &H80000002

strComputer = "."

Set oReg=GetObject(" winmgmts:{impersonationLevel=impersonate
}!\\" & _
strComputer & "\root\default:StdRegProv")

strKeyPath = " System\Currentcontrolset\Control\Class\{
4D36E972-E325-11CE-BFC
1-08002be10318}"

oReg.EnumKey HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE, strKeyPath, arrSubKeys

For Each subkey In arrSubKeys

' Cartes Intel - SpeedDuplex
oReg.GetStringValue HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE, strKeyPath & "\" & subkey, "Spee
dDuplex", strValue
If strValue <> 0 Then
strValue = 0
oReg.SetStringValue HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE,strKeyPath & "\" & subkey, "Spee
dDuplex", strValue

End If

' Cartes Broadcom - RequestedMediaType
oReg.GetStringValue HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE, strKeyPath & "\" & subkey, "Reque
stedMediaType", strValue
If strValue <> 0 Then
strValue = 0
oReg.SetStringValue HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE,strKeyPath & "\" & subkey, "Requ
estedMediaType", strValue

End If

We had a problem with Broadcom and Intel networkcards when we connected the nics via a Netgear switch to our core switches.

When the Intel Nic portspeed was set to 100FULL DUPLEX the Netgear switched to half duplex and alot of collisions, crc's occured.
But the Broadcoms had another problem, the portspeed of the Netgear switches didn't go 100FDX but half, so needed to set these to 100FDX.

I made a script with a ini settings file, and gave it to a college for testing.
But some days later he gave me a reply that I got the script from this forum... So I looked it up and strangely it is almost the same... scary

I removed some comments because the were in Dutch language, but really wanted to share this information/ script...

Can u tell us more, please...

How much machines does this apply?

You can use my or one of the scripts above.

Change all "SpeedDuplex" properties to "0"
"0" = AUTO

Great Script!

Thanks to everyone who has contributed to this thread, it's been a great help to me.

I've expanded the in-scope NICs to include every entry I can find for Broadcom and Intel as of May 2008. Included below. I'm afraid that I haven't been particularly thorough with the comment fields, so often the vendor ID and card name are not updated, but the [xxxxxxx] entries are correct AFAIK.

Do the PCs need to be rebooted/restarted for the changes to take effect or does the new registry entry dynamically refresh the network card speed ?
Thanks

Duplex option

It's dynamic, no need to reboot. Slight care required though as it does drop the network connection momentarily, worth considering if this is part of a script...

I have followed above post but the settings does not changes to Auto. It does change to 100 full but I need to make all the NIC to Auto. Also I want to run the vb script from my desk remotely on all 150 computers. Any help will be appreciated.

xcopy C:\Devcon\i386\Devcon.exe c:\
c:\devcon.exe remove =net
shutdown -s -t 90
pause


The above script will copy devcon.exe to the c:\
Open a command prompt
Navigate to the devcon.exe file copied in step 1
Remove the Network Adapter
Reboot the system in 90 seconds


I have written and tested this script and it works.


Enjoy
