Default Wireless Network x2

I have a laptop running Vista Business, which I need to run on two different
wireless networks using different network settings.

One is a home connection and uses the router to issue an IP, the other is an
office which requires a sepcific IP range setup.

Is there anyway for me to get the laptop to switch between the two based of
the network identifier?

Thanks in advance, Andrew.

Start/(right-click)Network-Properties/Manage network
connections/(right-click)LAN-Properties/select TCP/IPv4/Properties/Alternate
Configuration ... here you must provide a static IP (I recommend the home
one ... security reasons + easy config in router) or if you know the DNS ...

Thanks for the reply. Been seting up networks for the office for awhile,
and never realised you could have an alternative range stored.
