How to change IP addresses of my laptop quickly?

Question

I am using my laptop to connect to net both from my home and office.
The IP configuration in both the places are totaly different. Everyday I need to change the addresses and some configuration twice.
Is there any easy way to do it ?
I have tried with diferent Hardware profiles but its not helping as the Harware remains same in both place.

Thanks for your time and support.

Answer 1

If both home & office connections have static IP addresses then the kind of answer you seek just might not be feasible.

Answer 2

You could create a batch file. One named Home.bat and one named Office.bat In each of the files you could enter the appropriate commands for example lets say that your Home IP address was 192.168.17.9 and the subnet was 255.255.255.0 and the Gateway was 192.168.17.1 and the DNS server was 192.168.17.1 So in this batch file you create you would put the following: netsh interface ip set address name=”My Network Card Name Here” static 192.168.17.9 255.255.255.0 192.168.17.1 interface ip set dns “My Network Card Name Here” static 192.168.17.1 You could create this file using notebook. But when you save the file you want to use save as and change the file extension to .bat instead of .txt. Now you could just click the file and it would run the command and set the appropriate IP address settings. Note: The "My Network Card Name Here" should be replaced with whatever your network card is tagged with. Typically this will be "Local Area Connection"

Answer 3

it seems your require static ip address.normally in most offices DHCP server is used.so you need not to configure your ip address either at home or at office

Now do onething

open your connection>right click it

now go in properties>in general tab>go in internet protocol(TCP/IP)

NOW CLICK PROPERTIES.

Now go in alternate configuration.there you will see 2 option.go in user configuration.now put all your ip addresses of office

May this work

Ok

assign static ip address (office or home) to your pc.now go in advance option.in ip setting you can add more ip address and gateway address here

I have assigned up to 5 ip addresses to web server.but never to any client machine.so I cant say it will work or not.because this situation never arise.normally ISP assign ip address to home user dynamically.

best of luck

Answer 4

If your Service Provider has Dynamic IPs go to command prompt and type

ipconfig /flushdns

ipconfig /release

ipconfig /renew

Answer 5

configure the home ip address for lan and configure office ip address for wi-fi

if working in home disable wi-fi

if u working in office enabe wi-fi and disable lan



iam using like that

is works for me

Answer 6

In LAN PROPERTIES - TCP/IP PROPERTIES click on Advance tab and click on add to give alternate IP i.e. your other IP to your lan card so that whenever one network is not available it will automatically switch to another available network.
