I have written about MarcoPolo there

After switching from 10.4 to 10.5 on my macbookpro i have installed MarcoPolo

Basicly cause i have 2 locations configured on that installation

  • home (wlan & dhcp usage on the ethernet device)
  • work (manual ip settings)

After defining some basic rules MarcoPolo worked out of the box.

The advantage in my case:

  • no need to manually switch locations
  • scriptable actions based on the automatic change
    • Mute / unmute audio settings
    • Enable / disable password for my screensaver
    • etc…

I have to admit…a really nice app for all mobile users with more then 1 location. Get it :D

Some additional informations / comment about MarcoPolo can be found there
