Configure Static IP AddressNovember 17, 2004

Platform: Type: Description: If you normally have a static IP address but have to use DHCP at home or in other places, it is quite frustrating to have to go through all of the screens to acomplish this goal. I've written this script, which will change to a static IP address quickly. There are 2 options when you execute the script: 1) assign an address that is hard-coded in the script, OR 2) prompt you for the address, mask, and GW. If you commonly use the same static address, it's very easy to simply double-click the script and change your IP to your normal address! Scroll down to view the script. Configure Static IP Address

Set objWMIService = GetObject("winmgmts:\\" & strComputer & "\root\cimv2")
