Hi - I'm using Windows Vista Home Premium on my laptop, and I need to be able
to connect to the internet both at home and at work. At home, the only thing
that allows me to connect is setting my computer to automatically assign the
IP address, while at work, I must manually enter it in (otherwise I get the
"local connection only" problem). This is a pain, since every time I come
home and right click on the appropriate connection under "Manage Wireless
Networks" and set my home network to automatically select the IP, it changes
my work connection to do the same. Can I avoid this and somehow get my
computer to treat them as separate connections and remember the work
connection's IP while automatically selecting the IP for home? Any help would
be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
