It seems that I will answer my question for another time. It's possible to get there ShellExecuteW way:
{
ATL::CStringW cswNetworkAdapterPath = L"";
LPOLESTR lpwszNetConCLSID;
StringFromIID(CLSID_NetworkConnections, &lpwszNetConCLSID);
cswNetworkAdapterPath.Format(L"::%s\\::%s", lpwszNetConCLSID, lpwszAdapterGUID);
ShellExecuteW(NULL, L"properties", cswNetworkAdapterPath, NULL, NULL, SW_SHOWNORMAL);
}
That's the quick and dirty approach but it works (the less dirty will be CSIDL_CONNECTIONS way). You may also need to grab a thread to let the property sheet open.
