WiFi adapter DNS address not updated

Hi. At work today I configured a WiFi connection using a static IP address, including a static DNS address (I'm a programmer). This is saved in my list of known networks. I have another 'known network' for connecting at home which is set to DHCP. When I connected at home this evening, the DNS server I specified earlier is being used. When I open the adapter settings and open IPv4 properties, it is set to obtain address automatically.


I can specify my router's IP address as the DNS server in the IPv4 properties, which works, but I can't do this in the saved WiFi connection, as I cannot specify DHCP and assign a static DNS address.


How can I get Windows to use a static address for one network and auto assigned addresses for a different network?


Thanks!
