    Hello, You Can Set your Ip Address as Dynamic, I Hope this Answer your problem , just make your IP dynamic. It doesnt need to be static to use it

    Hello, You Can Check the routers - some have the ability to reserve an IP address based on the MAC address (usually called DHCP reservation). You log into the router, select the computer you want, and then reserve whatever IP address you want. Every time that computer connects to the router, it will be assigned the same IP address. This is much easier than manually assigning an IP address inside Windows.

    Hello You Can Check this Software Net Profile Switch is a network configuration switcher for notebook users. It switches between preconfigured network settings (profiles) on the fly, keeping notebook users from having to reconfigure their network settings every time (browser settings, printer settings etc).

    • A network profile includes:
    • Network settings (IP address, DNS, gateway)
    • Web browser proxy settings (supports IE, Firefox and Opera)
    • Network drive mappings
    • Default printer
    • SMTP-server for email software
    • and many more


    Switch between network configurations
    For example you can switch a laptop computer between two networks: one with a static IP address, and another with a DHCP assigned IP address. Or switch one static IP address to another. Switch a proxy server, switch SMTP-server and more.

    Switch a notebook/laptop between multiple networks with this network switcher
    Net Profile Switch is ideal for mobile people that connect to different networks all the time. Assume you have a DHCP-enabled network at your office, and a static IP address assigned to your network card at home. Moreover, you have a web proxy server in your office and no proxy at home. Every time you connect your notebook or laptop to a new local network you have to change the network-adapter settings and switch proxy settings manually. But, wouldn't it be easier to store two profiles (called "office" and "home") and switch between networks with one click? If you deal with two or more network locations, you can benefit from this network switcher utility that creates a profile with your configuration settings. Then you can easily switch between locations by activating a profile without restarting your laptop.
