Set multiple network settings – the review

My last entry titled “Set multiple network settings” refers. Here is the result of 2 days of using the utility.

In general, I must say that the program is absolutely fabulous. I have created mutiple profiles for myself: – (1) Home – using wireless network card, with dynamic IP setting. (2) Office (wireless) – also using wireless with dynamic IP. (3) Office (cable) – using dynamic IP with Local Area Connection. (4) Site XXX (Local Area Connection) – with fixed IP and proxy server.

Each time I’m at the various locations, I simply activate the relevant setting and all my network settings are configured automatically. For each profile, I can even set different map network drives and default printers. It works like a charm.

The only drawback that I found is that it is unable to specify local IP addresses when you specify the “Bypass proxy server for local addresses”. But I can live with that; it’s free anyway, so, cannot expect much.

Final verdict = 9/10
