i don't want to disable network adapter. i only want to disconnect the internet connection. i am not using a network adapter because i have wireless net connection which works via a Phone.

You can try:

$Timer = TimerInit()
Do
Sleep(100)
Until TimerDiff($Timer) >= 60*60*1000
RunWait("ipconfig /release")

It is still a network adapter if you're on a Windows box. Your phone had to create a virtual adapter in order for your computer to use it as an internet connection.

$Timer = TimerInit()

Sleep(100)
Until TimerDiff($Timer) >= 60*60*1000
RunWait("ipconfig /release")

it's a old trick. This option terminates any active TCP/IP connections on all network adapters and releases those IP addresses for use by other applications. 'ipconfig /release" can be used with specific Windows connection names. In this case, the command will affect only the specified connections and not all. The command accepts either full connection names or wildcard names. but this time it's not working. can you tell me why?

Might need:

RunWait(@ComSpec & "/c ipconfig /release")

[ChromeFan]

Might need:

RunWait(@ComSpec & "/c ipconfig /release")

Error:

F:\Documents and Settings\Administrator\Desktop\New.au3 (1) : ==> Unable to execute the external program.:

RunWait(@ComSpec & "/c ipconfig /release")

The system cannot find the path specified.

Forgot a space before slash:

RunWait(@ComSpec & " /c ipconfig /release")

I don't know what your goal is, but releasing the IP is not the same as disabling the adapter.

Forgot a space before slash:

RunWait(@ComSpec & " /c ipconfig /release")

this time it worked but the net was not disconnected.
