    Use different wifi connections in different virtual desktops


    I have my personal laptop at work, which I use for both work purposes and also for personal purposes. My work provides wifi access, which I need to use to access IP authenticated services they provide, but as I also use my laptop for personal stuff, I have a personal wifi hotspot setup on my phone to do that, so I'm not misusing my work's Internet connection.


    Currently, I have to manually switch connections if I want to move from doing personal stuff to work stuff and back. Is it possible to set up two virtual desktops with different wifi connections, so I can switch between the two as needed?

    :)

    Is it possible to have different icon layouts in different virtual desktops?

    If not any software which manages that with min usage of resources?
