I want to find the Default Gateway for Wireless Network Connection 14 in a bat file then store that in a varient to use later

I understand I can "findstr" but I have no idea how to get the default gateway of that NIC.

Thanks!

  2. Best Answer

    Verify the interface name with:

    netsh interface ip show address

    and try something like this:

    @echo off

for /f "tokens=2 delims=:" %%g in ('netsh interface ip show address 
"Wireless Network Connection 14" ^| findstr "Default"') do 
set DefaultGateway=%%g
echo %DefaultGateway%
pause

  3. Try something along the lines of:

    @For /f "tokens=3" %%* in (
    'route.exe print ^|findstr "\<0.0.0.0\>"'
) Do @Set "DefaultGateway=%%*"

    You should then be able to use %DefaultGateway% as a variable.
