Hello
You will need to go into Control Panel>Network Connections then Create a New
Connection for each connection you are going to use then right click the
connections you are not using and disable them, you will need to disable and
enable depending on the one you are going to use at that time, you can setup
as many connections as you wish.

Hope This Helps
