542154 2007-04-19 01:47:00 Hi there, i'm wondering if anyones knows some code i can maybe write to a batch file to quickly change my IP settings. i have a laptop and use a static ip at home and automatically configured ip at work. I'm wondering if there is a program or some code i can write so that i can quickly change my IP settings instead of going into properties and retyping the IP address all the time.

Cheers

542157 2007-04-19 10:06:00 awesome, that xp thing would work if my home network wasn't 'connected' with my work network. what the situation is is that my home network is connected to the network at work via two wireless routers talking to eachother (one and AP and one a client). my work network is on the 192.168.1.0 subnet and home is 192.168.0.0 so they can't communicate. if i want to access works network from home i just change my ip to 192.168.1.x or put it on automatically configure IP because the DHCP server can assign me an IP through the wireless. but if i want to access my home network i change my ip to 192.168.0.x. i had to turn off the DHCP on my broadband router because it was assigning IP addresses to the computers at work and people couldn't log in!
but that thing that's build into xp is a pretty sweet idea :thumbs:
