The most efficient way to manage all these settings is probably by using the
Location Manager. Once you have made a location for each group of ISP
settings, all your script has to do is this:

tell application "Location Manager" to set current location to location
"Your Location" -- (All one line)

If you only use two ISPs, it would be simple enough to make a script that
toggles between two groups of location manager settings.
