dhcp alternate configuration

[marfi95]

Hey all,

Here is my situation. I'd like to switch back and forth between my
office network and my home network. I know there is an Alternate
configuration that can be setup, but here is the issue. The alternate
only kicks in when a DHCP server cannot be found.

On our office network though, we have both DHCP and Static, so if I set
the primary to DHCP, it will find one. What I really want to do is use
static on my primary and the DHCP on my home network as the alternate.

Any ideas of how to get around this so I dont have to keep switching my
settings ?

Mark

Try:

1. 2 network adapters; or

2. netsh scripts: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/257748/en-us, saved as

3. A third party utility such as http://www.netswitcher.com/
