need a method to change IP gateway only by script

[speedi]

I need to change the IP gateway on a number of systems and thought it would be faster if I developed a script. Research I have done indicates use of NETSH, but I have not found command line to change the GATEWAY only... All systems have a static IP address... Thanks for any help provided....!

You can use netsh:

netsh interface ip add address "local area connection" gateway=100.1.1.5 gwmetric=2

You can use netsh:

netsh interface ip add address "local area connection" gateway=100.1.1.5 gwmetric=2

RunWait("netsh interface ip add address ""local area connection"" gateway=100.1.1.5 gwmetric=2")

that worked great! Thanks!

Question: What does the gwmetric=2 accomplish???? Thanks!

Not sure but I don't think it will work without it. See here:
