Lost WIFI sttings

[Terry]

We have a laptop with a wifi card. Works great, but whenever we stay
overnight in a hotel (specifically Hampton Inn) and connect to their
internet service, it changes something in the network settings so that when
we have the machine back in the office and try to connect to our network
through our wifi, we can connect to the internet but not to our net work. We
have checked to make sure the work group name has not changed (we are peer
to peer if that is important). The only way we have been able to get back on
our network is by restoring the whole system to a restore point before we
connected at the hotel.

Any ideas or direction would be appreciated.
