Help:How to make two or more wireless connection items in Network Connections?

Hello!
I begin to use wireless connection for my laptop computer recently.
But there is something borthers me that I must change the IP freqently
between home IP address and office IP address.So I hope to make two
wireless connection items to the same wireless card. Could it be possible?

You don't have to.
Setup you home for instance. It will be remembered in XP that you have
an appropriate security password to your home network router.
Then go to the office and 'view available networks' and you will pick
and setup that one. It too will be remembered.

The laptop will now search and find one of the two that are available
and connect. I move around from home to home, a total of 5, and each
one just connects when available.
If you right click on the wireless connection and click the 'wireless
networks' tab you will see the different routers you are able to
connected to. You can modify them (change passwords here if they ever
change) and order them for priority, but thats seems only necessary if
you had multiple routers in range. And you don't here.

If this is a company laptop, the usual advice is
to ask your IT person at work, how you connect at home.
Otherwise you can be very sorry.

Most wireless adapters use a configuration management system, either
the manufacturer's version or Wireless Zero Configuration by
Microsoft.) These record the wireless network name (aka SSID) details
and access into Windows. Then, when your wireless network adapter
detects a corresponding network, it then locates the "saved" info in
the record and then reconnects to the network. If the network is not
in the list of "saved" network, it will request the network access
details (aka passphrase.)

No matter, you connect to the wireless network somehow, just do it and
it will remember it as a configuration to use if it ever sees it again.

I've never heard of wireless hub. Maybe wireless access point.

I use a wireless router as a wireless hub.

Why do you harp on this. You still have to connect to it somehow.
Connect and let XP remember.

If its wireless, it normally has an SSID and password and encryption
type. Do and let xp remember.

I don't think the XP will remember the IP setting.
