System.GetLANInfo() produces incorrect ip address

[colc]

Hi All,
Been using System.GetLANInfo() to get lan.IP address which works OK as long as computer does not have VMWare installed!!



Yet when I use a VBScript it produces the correct IPv4 address as in pic


Yet the MAC address is for the WiFi Adapter as per " mac = lan.NIC"
I have been pulling my hair out trying to resolve this
Any ideas would be welcome
Cheers

What i know from what others have said it grabs the first in the list rather then grabbing the lan ip you want

Hi Rex,
No it's not the first that screenshot is actually the fourth and fifth adapter.Ethernet is disconnected, and there is another Vmware as well.
The only adapter enabled is the wifi which AMS get's the Mac address of but pick's up the Vmware IP

Are you not able to create a little VBS tool what is able to pass it back to AMS ?

[colc]

VBS is a problem that it cannot pass variable out ( from research that I followed up)
How does your whatsmyip plug communicate with AMS is it C++

Here is the VB code that I'm using

dim NIC1, Nic, StrIP, CompName

Set NIC1 =     GetObject("winmgmts:").InstancesOf("Win32_NetworkAdapterConfiguration")

For Each Nic in NIC1

    if Nic.IPEnabled then
        StrIP = Nic.IPAddress(i)

        Set WshNetwork = WScript.CreateObject("WScript.Network")
        CompName= WshNetwork.Computername

       MsgBox "IP Address:  "&StrIP & vbNewLine _
            & "Computer Name:  "&CompName,4160,"IP Address and Computer Name"
    
        wscript.quit
    End if
Next

I was thinking along the lines of Luacom plug to GetObject but could not find an example to go on lol
Tried with Scriptomatic also

I think you can write to file from VB so you could wright a temp file and then delete it in AMS

Also WhatsMyIP are remote IP's only it's 100% AMS/Lua

[kingzooly]

just a idea but maybe using

local getip = io.popen("ipconfig");
local getip= handle:read("*a");
getip:close();

This should grab all the ip config data, and you can then cut it up and use it as much as you need
