BridgeChecker is a windows utility that can automatically disable/enable wireless interfaces. Whenever your computer is connected to an Ethernet port and the link state is good, the utility can automatically turns off the IEEE 802.11 wireless network interface. This conserves IP address allocation, reduces security risks, resolves dual interface routing issues, and prolongs battery life.

BridgeChecker adds the ability to delay the start of the BridgeChecker service during the boot cycle. This feature is accessed via Manage Settings screen and can be set to 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, or 5 minutes. The default setting is zero minutes delay.

BridgeChecker has two modes, BridgeChecker Mode and OneNIC Mode. BridgeChecker v1.3 adds a Location Mode for enabling and disabling adapters based on the client location being "Work" or "Remote".

To determine if the client's location is work or remote the administrator can use a ping test, URL test, or gateway IP check. Based on the results of the test the adapters selected for Work or Remote location will be enabled and all other non whitelisted adapters will be disabled. The test will be rechecked every 1, 2, 3, 4, or 5 minutes with 5 minutes being the default check interval.

Requirements:
* NET Framework
* Windows Vista/Windows 7 users must run installer setup.exe as an Administrator
