[Description("The Network Interface performance object consists of counters that measure the rates at which bytes and packets are sent and received over a TCP/IP network connection.  It includes counters that monitor connection errors."): ToInstance Amended, Amendment, locale(1033): ToInstance, DisplayName("Network Interface"): ToInstance Amended, genericperfctr: ToInstance]

	[DisplayName("Bytes Received/sec"): ToInstance Amended, Description("Bytes Received/sec is the rate at which bytes are received over each network adapter, including framing characters. Network Interface\\\\Bytes Received/sec is a subset of Network Interface\\\\Bytes Total/sec."): ToInstance Amended] uint32 BytesReceivedPersec;
	[DisplayName("Bytes Sent/sec"): ToInstance Amended, Description("Bytes Sent/sec is the rate at which bytes are sent over each each network adapter, including framing characters. Network Interface\\\\Bytes Sent/sec is a subset of Network Interface\\\\Bytes Total/sec."): ToInstance Amended] uint32 BytesSentPersec;
	[DisplayName("Bytes Total/sec"): ToInstance Amended, Description("Bytes Total/sec is the rate at which bytes are sent and received over each network adapter, including framing characters. Network Interface\\\\Bytes Received/sec is a sum of Network Interface\\\\Bytes Received/sec and Network Interface\\\\Bytes Sent/sec."): ToInstance Amended] uint64 BytesTotalPersec;
	[DisplayName("Current Bandwidth"): ToInstance Amended, Description("Current Bandwidth is an estimate of the current bandwidth of the network interface in bits per second (BPS).  For interfaces that do not vary in bandwidth or for those where no accurate estimation can be made, this value is the nominal bandwidth."): ToInstance Amended] uint32 CurrentBandwidth;
	[DisplayName("Output Queue Length"): ToInstance Amended, Description("Output Queue Length is the length of the output packet queue (in packets). If this is longer than two, there are delays and the bottleneck should be found and eliminated, if possible. Since the requests are queued by the Network Driver Interface Specification (NDIS) in this implementation, this will always be 0."): ToInstance Amended] uint32 OutputQueueLength;
	[DisplayName("Packets Outbound Discarded"): ToInstance Amended, Description("Packets Outbound Discarded is the number of outbound packets that were chosen to be discarded even though no errors had been detected to prevent transmission. One possible reason for discarding packets could be to free up buffer space."): ToInstance Amended] uint32 PacketsOutboundDiscarded;
	[DisplayName("Packets Outbound Errors"): ToInstance Amended, Description("Packets Outbound Errors is the number of outbound packets that could not be transmitted because of errors."): ToInstance Amended] uint32 PacketsOutboundErrors;
	[DisplayName("Packets/sec"): ToInstance Amended, Description("Packets/sec is the rate at which packets are sent and received on the network interface."): ToInstance Amended] uint32 PacketsPersec;
	[DisplayName("Packets Received Discarded"): ToInstance Amended, Description("Packets Received Discarded is the number of inbound packets that were chosen to be discarded even though no errors had been detected to prevent their delivery to a higher-layer protocol.  One possible reason for discarding packets could be to free up buffer space."): ToInstance Amended] uint32 PacketsReceivedDiscarded;
	[DisplayName("Packets Received Errors"): ToInstance Amended, Description("Packets Received Errors is the number of inbound packets that contained errors preventing them from being deliverable to a higher-layer protocol."): ToInstance Amended] uint32 PacketsReceivedErrors;
	[DisplayName("Packets Received Non-Unicast/sec"): ToInstance Amended, Description("Packets Received Non-Unicast/sec is the rate at which non-unicast (subnet broadcast or subnet multicast) packets are delivered to a higher-layer protocol."): ToInstance Amended] uint32 PacketsReceivedNonUnicastPersec;
	[DisplayName("Packets Received/sec"): ToInstance Amended, Description("Packets Received/sec is the rate at which packets are received on the network interface."): ToInstance Amended] uint32 PacketsReceivedPersec;
	[DisplayName("Packets Received Unicast/sec"): ToInstance Amended, Description("Packets Received Unicast/sec is the rate at which (subnet) unicast packets are delivered to a higher-layer protocol."): ToInstance Amended] uint32 PacketsReceivedUnicastPersec;
	[DisplayName("Packets Received Unknown"): ToInstance Amended, Description("Packets Received Unknown is the number of packets received through the interface that were discarded because of an unknown or unsupported protocol."): ToInstance Amended] uint32 PacketsReceivedUnknown;
	[DisplayName("Packets Sent Non-Unicast/sec"): ToInstance Amended, Description("Packets Sent Non-Unicast/sec is the rate at which packets are requested to be transmitted to non-unicast (subnet broadcast or subnet multicast) addresses by higher-level protocols.  The rate includes the packets that were discarded or not sent."): ToInstance Amended] uint32 PacketsSentNonUnicastPersec;

WMI is a huge subject, so therefore it is practically impossible to provide a comprehensive example program that covers anything. However, the book �Network programming in .NET� (Buy at Amazon UK) (Buy at Amazon US) covers a much wider scope of WMI, and explains how to leverage it to access the bounty of information held within this vast, yet simple object model.
