BCX Internet Switch

The BCX Internet Switch tool is designed to allow users to change their internet settings.

Located in C:\Program Files\BCX\Client, it is deployed by creating shortcuts including configurable parameters.

Running BCXInternetSwitch.exe will give you the available parameters:

For example, you could create 2 shortcuts for your staff laptops:

Shortcut deployed - "School Internet". C:\Program Files\BCX\Client\BCXInternetSwitch.exe schoolproxy:8080 https://intranet 172.168.* bypasslocal

Shortcut deployed - "Home Internet". C:\Program Files\BCX\Client\BCXInternetSwitch.exe none https://www.google.co.uk

If the school proxy is set via GPO you could just deploy a "Home Internet" shortcut to remove the proxy when offline, which would re-apply onsite by group policy, or via a "School Internet" shortcut.

Replacing the URL with a nobrowser parameter will silently update the settings without opening the default browser.
