autoswitch add more conditions

I used to use Proxy Switcher for a long time before I switch to NetSetMan Pro as my proxy management tool.
The autoswitch condition in Proxy Switcher has more NetSetMan can learn from, like below

Re: autoswitch add more conditions

In your screenshot there are several items that aren't suitable for including in NetSetMan's AutoSwitch functionality: "IP/DNS/Gatway contains". Those are settings that you're managing in your profiles anyway. If you activate a profile that changes some of that settings you're already activating a profile, so there's no need for AutoSwitch to be triggered by that.
The only one that currently isn't available in NetSetMan is the one you've highlighted. We considered this to be covered by the Windows Network Locations condition, because as soon as you're connected to a wireless network you're also in a specific network profile. However, over the last months we've learned that users still want to have this condition, so we're going to add it soon.

Re: autoswitch add more conditions

The network location detection has time delay, is there a way to detect connected instantly?

Re: autoswitch add more conditions

That delay comes from Windows, not NetSetMan. Windows takes a couple of seconds to recognize the new network. It's the same for connected/disconnected LAN cables. The moment Windows recognizes the change, NetSetMan receives that notification and starts the process right away.
