Setting the IP address in Windows recovery mode

I had to restore a server and when trying to get to the network to access the backup I had an error saying there was no IP address.

I tried running

name="Local Area Connection" static IPAddress subnet mask gateway

but I received an error: unknown connection.

To fix this we need to first run wpeinit from the command prompt and then run

name="Local Area Connection" static IPAddress subnet mask gateway
