Hi,

How can I enable and disable a network adapter in eVC++?

SetIFEntry is not good enough.
It does not really disables it. Only the TCP.

And by using GetInterfaceInfo or GetAdapterInfo, it does not return the
adapters that are disabled so that I can enable them.

Any alternative?
Thanks

I think that a search with GoogleGroups on microsoft.public.windowsce.*
should find one or more old messages from me that describe what happens when
you choose Disable in the Network and Dial-up Connections applet. It
involves setting a registry entry and unbinding the adapter from TCP/IP...

Yes, of course disabled adapters are not loaded, so you can't enumerate the
loaded adapters and expect to find them.
