No, I have a very low specced pc, Intel NUC Celeron.
IE hardware acceleration is superior to anything else + could not watch 1080p YouTube videos in Chrome, but fine in IE11, with only 20% CPU utilisation.
I learned to live with it, so waiting impatiently for Spartan.

I think you're due for an upgrade...

Been using it for a few days, looks good.

Is there an app that can automatically swap to using fixed IP on one AP and switch back when a diffrent AP is in range?
Why do you need an app for that? Just reserve an IP address in a particular router and connect with the fixed IP settings. I use fixed IP addresses at home.

Llama does much the same but also more.
Isn't Llama just a poor man's Tasker?
yea but when you only need the basics, why buy tasker?

My Z3 Compact does that without 3rd party apps.

My next phone but for now my office wifi has dhcp off and a non standard gateway IP on it,
Everytime I come in I got to tick use static IP at work, and untick it when I'm home,
Thought somebody already created an app for that,

I might be missing something here, but can you not just go into advance settings of the wifi network on your phone and input the static IP you want/need?
What phone do you have? It's a standard feature of Android to have separate settings for each wireless network. So you just save your static IP to the work once and leave the home one on DHCP.
Yeah you're supposed to be able to. All my phones/tablets could do that.

TJ99 is correct - you can set any wifi network to DHCP or static (with IP address in the case of static).
