My company recently replaced everyone's laptops with a new Dell. I rather like the laptops, especially for the price, but the network configuration utility they provide is just flat-out broken.

I can just disable their utility, but I would like to replace it with something else, but I don't have any budget for it.

Does anyone have any experience with a freeware network profile utility that incorporates WiFi settings to suggest?

The only free one I've found is Net Profiles, and while I haven't tested it yet, the bug reports might imply that it's not up to snuff.
