If some adapters are disabled before you start simple ip config maybe using
windows network connections, then they do not appear in your adapter list.
Ideally all adapters should be shown, and disabled adapters should be
marked as disabled.

Noticed another issue. If an adapter has static IP assigned but media disconnected, simpleipconfig does not retrieve the IP and subnet. It retrieves the gateway and DNS settings fine.
Talking out loud here.. It appears when media is disconnected, Windows considers the IP to be "invalid", so it deletes the IP from its database that I am getting the information from. Obviously you can still see this info by clicking through to the adapter properties, so it is still there somewhere...

Thanks, I see it now.
I agree, they really need to be shown as well.

Is this fixed in 2.5_A3? I tried and its still not showing disabled adapters.
Thanks,
Alienglow
No, it was not in Alpha3..
But this can now be found in V2.5 Alpha 4!
one note: at this time, no information can be obtained from disabled adapters.

Just to add to the previous issue, please see if you can add media state(cable plugged/not plugged) as a new feature.
Thanks and regards,

Thanks for the report. I'm limited by the API I'm currently using, but I'll work on these things and see what I can do.

Hello Kurtis,
No 2014 updates? Also looks like the DNS changes are not getting applied.
Thanks and regards,
