$lan = "Cisco Systems VPN Adapter for 64-bit Windows"
$lanUp = Get-NetAdapter | select interfacedescription,Status | where { $.Status -match $up -and $.interfacedescription -match $lan }
$servicerunning = Get-Service netprofm | select status,starttype | where { $.Status -match $running -and $.starttype -match $manual }
if ($lanUp)
{
If($servicerunning)
{
Get-Service netprofm | Stop-Service -PassThru | Set-Service -StartupType disabled

$disabled = "Disabled"
$lan = "Cisco Systems VPN Adapter for 64-bit Windows"
$landown = Get-NetAdapter | select interfacedescription,Status | where { $.Status -match $disabled -and $.interfacedescription -match $lan }
$servicestopped = Get-Service netprofm | select status,starttype | where { $_.starttype -match $disabled }

if ($landown)
{
if($servicestopped)

Hi,

Please see if this works

$UpNetwork = {  
    $up = "Up"  
    $lan = "Cisco Systems VPN Adapter for 64-bit Windows"  
    $lanUp = Get-NetAdapter | select interfacedescription,Status | where { $.Status -match $up -and $.interfacedescription -match $lan }  
    $servicerunning = Get-Service netprofm | select status,starttype | where { $.Status -match $running -and $.starttype -match $manual }  
    if ($lanUp)  
    {  
        If($servicerunning)  
        {  
            Get-Service netprofm | Stop-Service -PassThru | Set-Service -StartupType disabled  
        }  
    }  
}  
  
Register-WMIEvent -Namespace root\wmi -Class MSNdis_StatusMediaConnect -Action $UpNetwork
