Hi, out there,

I am an installer of wireless high speed systems and have to set IP and
DNS addresses to configure these systems.

Does anyone have a usable script to set DNS addresses using netsh. I am
currently using netsh to set ip addresses but have yet to be successful
setting the DNS addresses.

My current script for IP addresses goes like this:

netsh interface ip set address name="LAN" static xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
255.255.255.xxx xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx 1

and it seems to work properly. Now I need to know how to set DNS
addresses as well.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

You may try to use add instead of set. This search result may help
