Return to Default Wifi Settings After Disconnect?

Hi,

I think Netsetman is a great tool. It defies reason why Microsoft do not include such features in Windows 7.

I am using Netsetman at my home and at school. At home I use a static IP and at school I use the DHCP server to assign me an IP. For these purposes Netsetman works great.

However, if I leave home and go to the house of a friend then my wireless adapter settings remain on the static IP settings for my home. If I try to connect to a new wireless network then windows applies my settings from home. This means that if I leave my home with my laptop and try to connect to another wireless network then I have to change my settings or set up a new profile.

If I leave school (DHCP assigned) and change to another network then my settings remain on automatically assigned settings.

I would prefer it if my wireless adapter settings automatically return to DHCP assigned settings as default when I disconnect from my home network. Is there any settings in Netsetman to do this?

Regards,

Re: Return to Default Wifi Settings After Disconnect?

Thank you for describing your use case.
I think this feature is what's currently requested the most. Like in this thread yesterday. It will be possible in the near future. See my full response in the linked thread. smile
