2 Different LAN Connections, 1 Profile

Hello,

Is is possible to have two very different LAN connections
on the same profile (one LAN setting would be enabled
while the other would be disabled). I connect my laptop to
two very different LAN networks.

I am aware of the alternate configuration - but that only
handles the TCP/IP portion of the settings.

I could also settle for different profiles with different
LAN settings. However, it seems that multiple profiles
share a common LAN setting. If I modify the setting under
one profile, it will be modified for all profiles.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Windows doesn't have anything built in to do what you want. These
third-party programs let you store multiple network configurations and
switch between them easily:
