    Hi, I'm using more wifi connections at my notebook when I'm traveling. It is annoying to change IP settings each time I move, Win XP does not remember separate IP connections for each AP. Is there some free software for this? thanks

    Unless I don't understand what you mean, WIN XP does remember IP connections for multiple connections. Mine does anyways...

        Yes I havce professional. I don't see why that would be a reason. What do you mean that you can't store multiple connections? Do create a network connection, and then it dissapears or it doesn't let you save a connection in the first place?

          It remembers DHCP connections, but not manual IP entries.

            i can store all AP I've visited. but each have bacically only one option - whether I wan to connect to it automatically, or not. But IP options like IP, mask, GW, DNS seems to be shared. I can't use DHCP anywhere so I have to retype it all again. I hate those "smart" IP edit boxes where I can't even use copy&paste

                  perhaps you can use WMI?
