Interesting, is there perhaps a way to translate the GUID of the
"transports" into a network interface name so it can be positively
connected to the NIC?
A "hidden" command parameter perhaps?

The best I've been able to come up with is use Regedit and look at the
following key and subkeys:

HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\NetworkCards\...

There is a "Service Name" and "Description" values that can be matched
up within each numbered key.
