    Does this solution require rebooting the machine between home and work?
    If the OP's needs are like mine, I never reboot the laptop. I use
    suspend-to-RAM and resume when moving between work and home. A solution
    involving rebooting is less than optimal.

    I don't currently have the OP's problem right now, because dhcp handles
    everything.
