Answer 1

I think this will help you on your way:

$DHCP = Get-WmiObject Win32_NetworkAdapter -ComputerName $Computer -Filter 'NetConnectionStatus=2' |  
    Where-Object { $_.NetConnectionID -match 'Ethernet|NIC|Local' } |
    ForEach-Object { 
        $config = $_.GetRelated('Win32_NetworkAdapterConfiguration')
        $_ | Select-Object SystemName, Description, MACAddress, NetConnectionID, AdapterType,
                           @{Name = 'DHCPEnabled'; Expression = { $config.DHCPEnabled }}
    }

The resulting $DHCP variable will contain something like:

SystemName      : Server01
Description     : Realtek PCIe GbE Family Controller
MACAddress      : AA:BB:CC:DD:EE:FF
NetConnectionID : Ethernet
AdapterType     : Ethernet 802.3
DHCPEnabled     : True
