and with ipconfig / renev equal_Error: command line not recognized or incomplete.

The proper way of using those commands is without the space after the /. So, it's
ipconfig /release and ipconfig /renew
and not
ipconfig / release or ipconfig / renew.

I wonder if there is a generic way to disable the internet while leaving you connected to other devices on your network, a printer for instance.

Take a look here. Not sure, but it might be possible for the approach to be "translated" into equivalent command lines...

If by any chance your connection is a wifi one instead of an ethernet one, or other details regarding the DHCP and whether the IP is static or dynamic are different, then jsmorley code from this thread which is using these to release or renew the IP for all adapters:

Code: Select all

ipconfig /release

Code: Select all

ifconfig /renew

will indeed not work, or better said it will only work when you're "disconnecting" via ipconfig / release.

The solution in that case would be to either:

1) use Predator73's resolve above (though that requires elevation in CMD, aka running it as an administrator), by running these to disable or enable your network interface (again, these will not reconnect you to the internet if your connection is wireless, just like the previously mentioned method):

Code: Select all

netsh interface set interface "YOURINTERFACE" disabled

Code: Select all

netsh interface set interface "YOURINTERFACE" enabled

2) use these to disconnect or connect to your interface and wireless SSID (assuming the security key / password is automatically used):

Code: Select all

netsh wlan disconnect interface="YOURINTERFACE"

Code: Select all

netsh wlan connect name="YOURCONNECTION" ssid="YOURSSID" interface="YOURINTERFACE"

As far as I tested the last two commands, they seem to do precisely what the user does when disconnecting or connecting manually. They don't require administrative privileges either, so that's a plus. Though I am able to connect over a wired connection as well, I didn't test them on that to see if they can represent a general solution to the problem by working in that case too, but anyone is welcomed to try (by the way, parameters are generally required only if the said parameter can have more than one valid value).

To see what values can be used for the name, ssid or interface parameters / fields, these can be used (I used the same name value as the ssid value was and it worked for me):

Code: Select all

netsh wlan show profile

Code: Select all

netsh interface show interface

To apply these in the skin, test them in CMD first to make sure whichever commands you chose work, then set the Parameter= options in the RunCommand measures from the skin accordingly.

I have this code sry no rmskin for this and you'll have to write in your own colors and fonts.
