Networks
by dafleck
The answer is yes. Without knowing what kind of networks you're connect to, I'm assuming that the two networks are disjointed and have no relationship between each other, (it would be easier if they were connected somehow). However, I believe that you'll need to have a static ip addresses from the networks to make it work, unless you're a scripting wiz. By default Windows will route everything to NIC#1, (it considers the second as backup). If there is a network (say 63.18.x.x) that is accessible only through NIC#2 (say 167.23.200.1), the IP datagrams for this network will still be routed through NIC#1 because it is the primary default gateway. To route IP datagrams destined to network 63.18.x.x through 167.23.200.1, a static route needs to be added to the routing table through the "ROUTE" utility. To add the route, type the following command in the command prompt:
route add 63.18.0.0 MASK 255.255.0.0 167.23.200.1
This is probably only one solution though.
