Laptop - One NIC - Multiple IP Addresses

I have a laptop running windows98 with a NIC which I carry around.  Is there
any way to setup the laptop to allow me to log onto different NT domains on
different networks.  This means that I have to be able to assign different
IP addresses to the laptop for every single network.  Additionally, other
TCP/IP configurations parameters such as DNS, DHCP, WINS, etc. will also
have to change for every single network.  This will also apply if other
networks may require running different protocols such as IPX, NetBEUI, etc.
Is there anyway to automate this using some kind of configuration profile
(or script) that at boot time, I could select which network I am logging on,
and thus the corresponding TCP/IP parameters (or other protocols relevant to
that network)  be automatically be assigned.  This would tremendously make
my job easier so that I don't have to change my configuration manually
everytime I am going on a different network.


I appreciate any suggestions that you may have..


Regards,


Al
