Use CMD to get network adapter stats

Hello everyone.

I am trying to figure out a way to use the command line to get the current
speed and duplex information from the current adapter. I imagine there is a
way to do this, but I have not been able to find the answer. I have looked
through the Windows 2000 Recourse Kit tools but cannot find what I am looking
for. Am I looking for something that does not exist?

I hope someone can help me with this.

Thank you all in advance.

I suspect you're asking for the impossible. Every NIC has
its own driver and its own user interface, hence there is
probably no universal method to interrogate its settings.
Have a look here in the registry - you will find that the
value names are completely different for different types
of NICs.
HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Class\{4D36E972-E325-11CE-BFC1-08002bE10318}

Thank you for your reply. After further research and digging after I posted
this thread, that is about the same conclusion I have come to.
