Here is the situation. I am running win9x on dell systems on a network. 3com network card. I have a 3com external modem. When I dial into anywhere and make a connection, I am unable to access the network. This can cause problems because email is on the network and I sometimes need to respond immediately. I use tcp/ip for the network card and tcp/ip dial up adapter with the modem. Is there a way to keep two different tcp/ip connections at the same time.
