Changing the Network Configuration with NetSetMan

If we often connect the internet in many different places and with different configurations, we may often be bothered when we have to change the IP address (Internet Protocol), Subnet Mask, DNS, Gateway and others. To make this easier, we can use a software called NetSetMan.

Setting the network to be connected to the Internet at home, at school, at work or elsewhere is sometimes different, and we often have to manually change the IP address. With free software called NetSetMan, we can speed up all processes and just a click just to adjust the network configuration in place that we choose.

This software provides six settings (profiles) that can be set, for example, the first setting for connection at home, second for the office setting, the third setting for the campus, etc. When we want to connect to the internet we just choose the profile that we have set and click Activate. After setting 'on' we can close this application. In this way we do not need to manually change the IP address configuration.

Once we fill the IP address configuration, the data will automatically be stored (in the settings file) and we can move this file or the backup separately. Several configurations can be set with NetSetMan is:

• IP Address (Internet Protocol)
• gateway
• DNS Servers
• WINS Server
• IPv4 and IPv6
• WiFI management
• Computer Name
• workgroup
• DNS Domain/Suffix
• Default Printer
• Network Drives
• NIC Status
• SMTP Server
• Hosts File Entries
• Scripts (BAT, VS, JS, ..)

So far I've been using NetSetMan and very helpful and speed up when I need to connect in a different place and each with an IP address that must be set manually. NetSetMan support in Windows 2000, XP, 2003, Vista, 2008 and Windows 7 (either for 32bit and 64bit).
