I want to give my brother-in-law's machine a static IP address when he connects to his wireless access point at home using Vista. When I do, though, it changes it universally, and it breaks him connecting at work. I can't seem to limit it to that particular connection.

On XP this was relatively easy, but Vista seems to be different.

Any help here?

Can the access point be configured with the MAC address of the wireless card to only issue a specific address by DHCP? This assumes the work environment is using DHCP as well.
