FBI Surveillance...lol. I used to name my wireless SSID "Get your virus here" when I lived in an apartment by myself. Good video...Merry Christmas dude :)

I was searching for this for some time. Thank you for posting this video. It is very helpful.

[@jakejones9502]

Very helpful, Merry Christmas.

[@Britec09]

Happy holidays!

[@eddietours3728]

Yes please Powershell too

[@di0__0ib]

Yes please! 😊

[@aguaponics]

Did not know this was even available! Thanks for the info.

[@Urosaurus]

Very useful, cheers!

[@Britec09]

Glad you think so!

Very useful! Have a lovely Xmas holiday Brian 🎄🎄🎄

[@Britec09]

Thanks, you too!

[@jasonhawkins4528]

Great one. Thanks Brian. I’ve also did in network adapter advance settings is use 5ghz preferred band. It forces the wireless to pick the faster band and ac connection 😊

Is it possible to set a browser to use only the wi-fi connection and another program, like qbittorrent, to use only ethernet wired connection?

[@Britec09]

Nice

[@IGY22]

Thank you. Merry Christmas

[@di0__0ib]

​@@GRsBlueBiHanexcellent question I'd like to know as well

Wishing you a very happy Christmas to you and your family

[@Britec09]

Same to you!

[@primoroy]

You said DON'T use duplacte values. Why does the automatic setting have duplicate values?

[@J5388T]

Useful video thanks.

[@Britec09]

Glad it was helpful!

[@cypher0124]

i only have 2 things on this list wifi and ethernet and ethernet is disabled, unplugged is this worth doing?

[@di0__0ib]

I would say yes just to future proof it. You never know if you might use it in the future. It certainly won't hurt your system.

[@erwinancer]

Always so useful information to get the most out our old pcs… BTW Merry Christmas and a prosperous 2025 to you and your loved one

[@Britec09]

Thanks, same to you

[@KenneyBear]

So should I set my IPV4 and IPV4 on my Ethernet to the same value as both 1? or should I put Ipv4 and 1 and ipv6 as 2?

[@Faisalkhamis1177]

Can you please make a video on how to route network traffic using the installed network cards? For example if a browser wants to access the internet, use card1. If an application wants to access an internal subnet, use card2.

[@garynagle3093]

Very useful

[@Britec09]

Glad you think so!

[@A.S.K.1]

I have a link on my desktop to the "Control Panel". Double click to open > Under "Network and Internet" click on "View network status and tasks" to open > click on "change adapter settings." This opens your "Network Connections" Just as you have... but in 3 clicks. Win 11 Pro. It's not that hard to get to them.

[@di0__0ib]

That command to open the network connections window is great! Thanks for pointing that out. Nice and fast to get there for me now! Off to find the other shortcut commands for other links in control center. If anybody has other useful ones like that, could you please drop them in the replies to me? Thanks in advance!

[@Britec09]

I make a video of some

[@di0__0ib]

​@@Britec09just thought of another thing. If we also use ipv6, should we give them priority numbers of 6 and up in this example? Or do we start over with 1 and up? Also noticed you skipped the Bluetooth adapter. Is it because it's basically worthless, or just not worth giving a higher priority? Thanks!

[@normanwhite2227]

Just open Settings page and in Settings search box type Network Connections.

[@di0__0ib]

@@normanwhite2227 that's a different page than what is provided in control panel. But thanks for pointing out how to do that 😊

[@normanwhite2227]

@@di0__0ib lol Control Panel is also there. Or you can type in same Settings search box "Control Panel"

[@defan2105]

excuse my ignorance BUT will this help me if my PC is plugged into the Ethernet but I have my tv box is now, not cable, but WiFi connection and it keeps pausing even if I put a signal strength reader that shows it is a full strength in the next room? My wife is irritated that who "shows" keep cutting out. I have Download Mbps 807.54 - Upload Mbps 64.06...it is a digital cable box by a company called Mediacom Cable

Use Powershell (CMD prompt does not work) in Windows 10/11. Happy Holidays, Mate!

[@Britec09]

You too

[@ionamygdalon2263]

PowerShell videos btw would be VERY WELCOME 🤗

[@Britec09]

coming

[@evankalbach9985]

I liked the old days when I could utilize multiple networks adapters at the same time. IE: if I had wired and wireless)

[@Britec09]

Old days were the best

[@diskeed]

Hmmm, when I type this (in an Admin CMD prompt) I get: 'get-NetIPinterface' is not recognized as an internal or external command' (NOTE: works fine in PowerShell)

[@clarkawheeler]

It would be very useful if you put the cmd in you description to copy and paste.

[@A.S.K.1]

Just put a link to the "Control Panel" on your desktop. You can get to the "Network Adapters" area in 3 clicks.

[@clarkawheeler]

@@A.S.K.1 I was speaking of the telnet cmd "get-NetIPinterface" which I had to replay the video and stop it and copy it into notepad. I already have a shortcut to "Network and sharing center" using control panel.

[@Prince-qx7pk]

As usual, interesting topics and yes make that vid please, just wondering what's the difference goin to b !!!

[@Britec09]

Coming soon!

[@Monkofmagnesia]

I receive a message: 'get-NetIPinterface' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file.

[@wilfredr980]

Powershell not command prompt

Anyone else being denied ALL downloads by last weeks' W11 update? Even the despicable Edge is showing "Failed - virus scan failed" at the Windows download center. I was trying to install 11 on a used but supported computer with TPM2.0.....it's like MS wants me to go all Linux all the time and not just the lovely Zorin on my oldest rig. Seriously, to hell with MS.

[@EIRE55]

The _BrenTech_ channel did that topic yesterday, so have a look at it. I think he gave a solution, but I'm not sure as I don't use W11.

[@asifshamsi5630]

Is this will speed up my internet. Please make a video on internet is killing old PCs by slowing them.

[@Britec09]

Depends on many things, internet speed etc etc

[@bertvantol9669]

Question: After I upgraded to Windows 11 24H2, I had NO access to my WD NAS anymore :-( Does anybody know how I can solve this problem ???

[@Britec09]

I will make video with solution tomorrow
