Starting from Windows Vista, one can also edit wireless settings (for example, SSID) using netsh . netsh can also be used to read information from the IPv6 stack. The command netsh winsock reset can be used to reset TCP/IP problems when communicating with a networked device. ==References== ==Further reading== ==External links== Using Netsh from Microsoft TechNet Netsh Commands for Wireless Local Area Network (WLAN) in Windows Server 2008 R2 (includes Windows 7), from Microsoft TechNet.
