Switching between wireless and wired network

I have a new laptop with Windows XP. I connect to a wired LAN at work with a statice IP address but have wireless at home. when I use the laptop at home I loose my TCP/IP settings on the LAN and have to re-enter them when I return to work. Is there a way to prevent this from happening.

 

Each of your adapters (wired and wireless) should retain their respective settings regardless of what networks you connect to, so can you please describe the steps you take each time you switch networks (ie home - work and work - home)?

 

Yea I agree those settings should not change switching back and forth between the different adapters. I would recommend when your at work to disable your wireless connection and when your at home to disable your hard wired local area connection since your not using them. Maybe you can even disable your hard wired connection before you leave work and see if it holds when you come back. I'm not sure that this would work since you shouldn't have to do this but give it a try anyway.
