How To Change Local Area Connection Name

[komar77r]

i know that i can simply go to the "My Network Places" press F2 and that's it

but how to do it in command line ?

i use polish localisation of Ms XP Home, and in this case the default name is

"Połączenie lokalne", so it has space in it and some funny characters

The following command line should get you started:

netsh interface set interface /?

To expand on The-VOICE's comments:

netsh interface set interface name="Local Area Connection" newname= "Prod" can be used at the command line.

I run mine from a batch file called by the Runonceex.cmd file.
