Does anybody know of a code I can put in a batch file to change the Nic Speed easily? I have a user that needs to be 100 full at the office but Auto Negotiate at home..
I can't have him go into the network settings everytime, so Batch file would be an easy fix.

Yes, you can do it via the registry. I've written a script to do this but it's specific to the model of your nic and the name of your connection. You'll have to play with the settings and key names a bit but this should get you on the right path.

I'm just following up to say that you'll need to check the \0007 and the "Local Area Connection 2" which

can change on different machines.
I haven't tested this myself - I wonder if it will need a reboot?

It depends on the driver.

I found that, a view crappy drivers for onboard NICs may complains that it
needs system reboot when unloaded.
The effect won't be applied until the driver is completely unloaded from the
system, then loaded again.

IIRC you can "net stop server" and "net start server"
to reinitialise the NIC without rebooting.
