I’ve got a question for you guys.

I’m not a networking guy. Just a maintenance tech, but anyways here’s the story:

Here at our plant we have three stories of machinery. So I ran some CAT6 to a scalance switch and configured our shop computers adapter to be remote into our visualization with VNC viewer. It makes life easier for us by not having to walk a half a mile to reset faults.

But we have guys who have written some complaints that the plant intranet no longer works, and despite me telling them to plug a different cable into a different wall plate, and configure the adapter accordingly, they’re unable to figure it out and are upset they can’t get on miniclips.com at work.

So my question is: how can I configure my one RJ45 port on my desktop to switch between these networks without having to configure my adapters IP address and subnet masks?

I apologize for the long story, and thanks again for any advice/help.
