    Where you change the IP above it, it gives you the option of obtain Ip automatically

    Each wifi router is different, but you should be able to access the router from a computer that is directly connected to it through an ethernet connection. Most wifi routers connect through a browser interface, but the actual address will depend on your model. You should be able to change the settings from there.

    Why do you want to change it? The supporting part of your question does not really match.

    The second question depends on which computer you are using. When you are at home and you are manually connecting, you should look for an option or checkbox that says something like “remember this network.” If this is a laptop from your work, it is possible that you do not have admin privileges on your computer and you may not be able to change this setting. Good luck.
