Simple IP Config

#1 Post by lautrepay »

Simple IP Config is a small utility to change common Windows network settings quickly and easily. This includes IP Address, Subnet Mask, Gateway, and DNS Server. It is set up in a format similar to the built-in Windows IP Properties configuration, but with more features. The program was written completely in AutoIt.

What's the license? So tired of SourceForge's confusing navigation.

The sources are included in the zip package or as a separate download. But it has a non specific license, according to Sourceforge classification.

Can I rely on your impartiality or your opinion is influenced by the fact that the application is written in AutoIt? :wink:
Anyway, screenshot updated.

It's impartial as I tried the application and found it to be a little laggy in certain places, I looked at the code and I can see why.

Definitely a deep test.
Perhaps with more development the app will be ready to be added to the database.

I would offer to help of course just like I did with DropIt, but it's easier for a developer to learn by their mistakes than me doing it for them.
