Hi to all,
do you know if (and how) it is possible to create different Hardware
profiles in order to hv the same NIC configured with different IPs ? (The
laptop should be configured for DHCP in one office, and static in another).

Or it is possible to hv only one NIC with 1 static and 1 DHC addresses ?

Many thanks in advance

Fabrizio

Not via hardware profiles, no. But have you tried the alternate config in
your NIC properties?
If that doesn't work, there are third party apps - MultiNetworkManager or
NetSwitcher. Google!
