Software Update: NetSetMan 4.4.1

Ilja Herlein has released version 4.4.1 of NetSetMan. With this program, various settings can be adjusted quickly and easily by means of profiles. It is especially useful for laptop users who use their computers in different locations such as home and work. With the push of a button, for example, the IP address, the default printer and the smtp server can be changed. The program is free to use, but there is also a pro version for commercial users, which also allows customizing the domain, proxy server and browser homepage. The changelog shows the following changes and improvements:

New:

• AutoSwitch Option: “Automatically switch to the WiFi access point with the strongest signal (10% tolerance) of the current SSID”

Fixed:

• Closing running instances during setup failed in rare cases
• Reading current settings for Gateway and DNS auto/static
• Third-party VPN Client recognition failed for x64 clients
• Missing Shrew Soft VPN Client profiles with a dot in their name
• Some special characters in printer names weren’t displayed correctly
• Wrong connection speed displayed in certain constellations
• AutoSwitch LAN/WiFi switcher now ignores manual NIC state changes
• If Windows reinstalls a NIC after a Windows or driver update, the old NIC references will now automatically be replaced with the new ones
