You're in the realms of customising something like NetworkManager, here. Which some people have no troubles with, while others swear *at* it. It should be possible for it to automatically tell the difference between connecting to your home network, versus another, and for you to configure each of them differently - the home network with preset addresses, the others on automatic. Alternatively, you can do the same sort of thing, but manually select to connect to a home or other network, from its list of available networks. NetworkManager is not just for wireless, it also handles other network types. -- [tim@localhost ~]$ uname -rsvp Linux 3.9.10-100.fc17.x86_64 #1 SMP Sun Jul 14 01:31:27 UTC 2013 x86_64 All mail to my mailbox is automatically deleted, there is no point trying to privately email me, I will only read messages posted to the public lists.
