I have a C# code snippet where you can Check/Uncheck 'Automatically detect settings' check box of IE Connection Settings. You can find what you are looking for in this snippet.

    public bool IsIEAutoDetectProxy(bool set)
    {
        // Setting Proxy information for IE Settings.
        RegistryKey RegKey = Registry.CurrentUser.OpenSubKey(@"Software\\Microsoft\\Windows\\CurrentVersion\\Internet Settings\\Connections", true);
        byte[] defConnection = (byte[])RegKey.GetValue("DefaultConnectionSettings");
        if (defConnection[8] == Convert.ToByte(9))
           return true;
        else
           return false;
    }
