I want to find the Default Gateway for Wireless Network Connection 14 in a bat file then store that in a varient to use later

I understand I can "findstr" but I have no idea how to get the default gateway of that NIC.

Thanks!

Verify the interface name with:

netsh interface ip show address

and try something like this:

@echo off

for /f "tokens=2 delims=:" %%g in ('netsh interface ip show address 
"Wireless Network Connection 14" ^| findstr "Default"') do 
set DefaultGateway=%%g
echo %DefaultGateway%
pause
