Strange but I run the playbook again and it actually gives me some output. Many thanks for the explanation regarding the pipe sign. Makes things more clear now. Problem is in stdout_lines, this doesn't display the same info that it would display when it was run directly on the Windows box. It cuts off last two columns which are my MACaddress and LinkSpeed.
