duplicate entry for network adapter

[OM]

Hi,

I have a script to query network adapter information on remote machines.
One thing seems to be odd is that some machines will show two
identical network adapters on the output even there is only one card
installed.

script
Set colItems = objsWbeMServices.ExecQuery ("Select * from
Win32_Networkadapter
For Each objItem in colItems

Wscript.Echo "Network Card: " & objItem.caption

Wscript.Echo "MAC address: " & objItem.macaddress

next


output
Network Card: [00000000] 3Com EtherLink XL 10/100 PCI For Complete PC
Management
NIC (3C905C-TX)
MAC address: xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx
Network Card: [00000006] 3Com EtherLink XL 10/100 PCI For Complete PC
Management
NIC (3C905C-TX)
MAC address: xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx

Does anyone know why?

Thanks

try seeing what objItem.NetConnectionStatus says?

the docs say Caption does this: "Short description of the object—a
one-line string. This property is inherited from CIM_ManagedSystemElement."
