Is there any easy way to setup network configurations for home and work? At
work I have a static IP address and DNS settings. While at home (or coffee
shop) I have to change my IP settings to DHCP and then have to re-enter my
network configurations when I get back to work. I am running Windows Vista
Home on a Dell Inspiron 1501 if that helps. Thanks in advance for your help!

You might use the network adapters alternate configuration window. Go into
the properties for TCP/IPv4 and select the Advanced -> Alternate
Configuration tab...

Here is the XP article that talks about this...

Otherwise a product like NetSwitcher may work for you...
