How do i use System.Net.NetworkInformation.GatewayIPAddressInformation Class?
From MSDN:
- In brief, you call
NetworkInterface.GetAllNetworkInterfaces()
to get a set of adapters.
- On one of those adapters, get
adapter.GetIPProperties().GatewayAddresses
.
- Each element of the
GatewayAddresses
is aGatewayIPAddressInformation
.
public static void DisplayGatewayAddresses()
{
Console.WriteLine("Gateways");
NetworkInterface[] adapters = NetworkInterface.GetAllNetworkInterfaces();
foreach (NetworkInterface adapter in adapters)
{
IPInterfaceProperties adapterProperties = adapter.GetIPProperties();
GatewayIPAddressInformationCollection addresses = adapterProperties.GatewayAddresses;
if (addresses.Count >0)
{
Console.WriteLine(adapter.Description);
foreach (GatewayIPAddressInformation address in addresses)
{
Console.WriteLine(" Gateway Address ......................... : {0}",
address.Address.ToString());
}
Console.WriteLine();
}
}
}

I'm passionate about code, since there's nothing else that lets you to put your thoughts, ideas & mental routines - into a computer, to do things your brain could only dream about and imagine, but never perform. Parts of my brain now live on... in various computers around the world, and if you're reading this, so does yours! :) Now that's something to think about; (pun unintended).

I tried every trick in the book, creating a new object, instantiating it (even tho it says i can't) and just trying to create a reference to use it, and then also trying to call the .Address value inside it while using it like i would use a shared member (without instantiation) and nothing is working, msdn sample/help is useless... i even tried inheriting it and useing it like that, none of them worked, i am sure i am missing something, can anyone give me some code samples? here is the msdn docs on it to to give you an overview...
although i like vb.net more i can read and coded in both c# and vb.net so either will be fine.
thanks:)
an aside: if anyone is wondering why, im just trying to get my routers name/label from a pc as shown here... How to get Router Name & IP as shown in Windows Network Tab? (in Code)
