A year ago I shared with you the best free network settings switcher software called Net Profiles. I am still using it because I very often connect my laptop to my clients’ networks. With this network switching tool, I can spend more time using the network and less time configuring it.

I am going to start using a different network manager software called MultiNetwork Manager 9 which is much better than Net Profiles because it has more powerful features. Normally MultiNetwork Manager 9 cost $28.95 but I manage to find a way to get the License ID and Key to activate the program for free. If you are like me who uses laptop which involves in moving between different network environments, then MultiNetwork Manager 9 will help you to change your network configurations in a breeze.


MultiNetwork Manager 9 allows you to connect to the internet and other networks independent of where you are by using auto-detection discovery functionality that automatically finds the correct settings for the network you are using or use the Profiles & Policies window to create or change your profile. The tool allows you to define and save network settings in configuration profiles for each location at which you may work, and to choose which profile you wish to use each time.

With the “location sensing” functionality MultiNetwork Manager even suggests the appropriate profile to use when arriving at a known location. The profile is set up and suggested automatically and may be managed and changed in the current status window under settings/location sensing.

MultiNetwork Manager includes many possibilities for advanced users or IT professionals to set up and manage security settings, WLAN settings and VPN connections. It includes various ways of pushing out or making profiles available for different locations, distribute scripts to be run, registry settings to be invoked or just simple but convenient things like the appropriate default printer at a certain location.

Auto detection and one click connect
