You can use the search capability to locate specific strings, like wireless or 3COM or 100. If the search finds a matching NIC, FindNIC can launch a program or script.

When you type FindNIC /?, the Help screen appears:

If you wanted to find all the wireless NICs on your network, you could use Workstation.bat to run wireless.bat:

Workstation <DomainName> <Account> <Password> WSPD \\Server\ShareName\wireless.bat \\Server\ShareName\wireless.log

which contains:

@echo off
\\Server\ShareName\FindNIC /s=wireless /l=\\Server\ShareName\%computername%.log

NOTE: This utility changes the parameters to upper case. If you used the /R= switch, the invoked program will receive upper case parameters.

NOTE: FindNIC recursively parses HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\NetworkCards.
