My computer has two ethernet adapters and I have two internet connections which have their respective routers connected to those ethernet ports on the PC.  Is it possible to use them both at the same time for mutually exclusive tasks?  for ex, using one connection for downloading torrents while using the other one for surfing web via a browser?

I am currently using a computer in a corporate environment which is connected to the intranet through the ethernet adapter and to the internet through the wireless adapter.   The problem is this: the ethernet adapter has higher priority in the routing table, so if the wire is connected to the ethernet adapter I cannot neither access the internet nor get emails in Outlook.  I am wondering if it is possible to bind, for instance, Internet Explorer to the ethernet adapter so I can access to the intranet and Chrome and Outlook to the wireless adapter so I can both surfer the internet and get emails when the wire is connected.  I have already tried ForceBindIP but I cannot get it working on Windows 7 64 bits.  Can anyone help me out?  Thanks, Bralok

I have a number of servers in my room, and I'd like to have a high-speed wired LAN within the room between my servers and my desktop and laptop. My internet access is provided by a cable modem connected to a wireless router, and I'd like it to stay that way (my Internet connection setup is at the other end of the house). Are there any routers (wireless or wired) out there that could provide a wired LAN in my room, but use a wireless connection as the Internet source? (the router in my room would be connected to my house's hotspot and use that as the Internet connection for the LAN in my room).

So here is my situation. We recently got another internet connection setup here at home, which means we have two now. Each internet connection has its own router (both routers have a built in modem, if that matters). Now, on our existing local network, we have a NAS that we use for backups and such.  I am using Windows 7 or 8 on all of our PC's. The router that is used for the first of the internet connections is running DD-WRT. The router that is used for the new internet connection is a ZyXel P-2601HN-F1.   The NAS is just a PC that I built running Windows Server. The new router is not connected to the old one at the moment, so the PC's connected to the old router cannot be accessed if you are connected to the new one. What I am trying to do is to connect the two together, so that I would be able to access the PC's regardless of which router I am connected to.  The problem I am facing now, is that when you are connected to the new internet connection via the new router, you of cause don't have access to the computers and the NAS on the other network since they aren't connected in any way. How would I go about connecting the two networks so that you can access the NAS and computers no matter what router you are connected to? Would it be as simple as disabling DHCP on one of the routers and connecting the other one to it?

Suppose network interface 1 (net1) and 2 (net2) are both connected to the Internet. I want application 1 (app1) to use net1, and application 2 (app2) to use net2. How can it be done under Windows?  If you need a concrete example of the above situation, consider:   A laptop with Windows 7 net1 = A wired connection to a Verizon Internet modem net2 = A wireless connection to a Comcast Internet modem app1 = Internet Explorer app2 = Firefox I'd like to have "IE use Verizon but not Comcast", and "Firefox use Comcast but not Verizon"   It doesn't have to be done via the routing table. If you've other ideas, please let me know!

I would like to use two different static IP addresses for the same network with the same Wi-Fi dongle. I read in different forums that it's better to use /etc/network/interfaces instead of dhcpcd.conf for that purpose. So I changed the /etc/network/interfaces that way:  auto lo iface lo inet loopback  iface eth0 inet dhcp auto wlan0 allow-hotplug wlan0 iface wlan0 inet static     address 192.168.0.60     netmask 255.255.255.0     gateway 192.168.0.10     wpa-conf /etc/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant.conf auto wlan0:0 allow-hotplug wlan0:0 iface wlan0:0 inet static     address 192.168.0.61     netmask 255.255.255.0     wpa-conf /etc/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant.conf   The issue now is that for the most of the time I can't ping any member of the network. During the first 10 seconds, everything works fine and then I mostly don't get any connection.  ifconfig shows the following:  lo        Link encap:Lokale Schleife             inet Adresse:127.0.0.1  Maske:255.0.0.0           inet6-Adresse: ::1/128 Gültigkeitsbereich:Maschine           UP LOOPBACK RUNNING  MTU:65536  Metrik:1           RX packets:1237 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0           TX packets:1237 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0           Kollisionen:0 Sendewarteschlangenlänge:1            RX bytes:100748 (98.3 KiB)  TX bytes:100748 (98.3 KiB)  wlan0     Link encap:Ethernet  Hardware Adresse b8:27:eb:a2:4b:72             inet Adresse:192.168.0.60  Bcast:192.168.0.255  Maske:255.255.255.0           inet6-Adresse: fe80::ba27:ebff:fea2:4b72/64 Gültigkeitsbereich:Verbindung           UP BROADCAST MULTICAST  MTU:1500  Metrik:1           RX packets:15498 errors:0 dropped:10634 overruns:0 frame:0           TX packets:5446 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0           Kollisionen:0 Sendewarteschlangenlänge:1000            RX bytes:5910381 (5.6 MiB)  TX bytes:722284 (705.3 KiB)  wlan0:0   Link encap:Ethernet  Hardware Adresse b8:27:eb:a2:4b:72             inet Adresse:192.168.0.61  Bcast:192.168.0.255  Maske:255.255.255.0           UP BROADCAST MULTICAST  MTU:1500  Metrik:1   and route -ne has the following output:    Ziel            Router          Genmask         Flags   MSS Fenster irtt Iface 0.0.0.0         192.168.0.10    0.0.0.0         UG        0 0          0 wlan0 192.168.0.0     0.0.0.0         255.255.255.0   U         0 0          0 wlan0   I also stoped dhcpcd, the IPs aren't in the dhcp IP pool of the router and with one static IP everything works fine  Does anyone have any clue what I did wrong?

Here are a few questions, I wish you could enlighten me.   Is it possible to combine processing power of 2 computers? How do I do it?

I quite often need to reset &quot;Ethernet&quot; connection as shown above. Currently I disable then enable it from the control panel but I wonder if I can create a script that I can simply double-click from my desktop or whatever? My preference would be a batch file simply as I'm most familiar, but I would imagine this is perhaps more suited to Powershell?

I have an ethernet cable (not a crossover cable) to connect my laptop and my desktop ubuntu machines. I want to transfer large amounts of data. Is it possible with such a cable? I believe that between two Windows machines such a connection is possible (though I'm not totally sure).

I'm trying to connect my computer from home to two computers in my office. The office has a router and I already forward the port for computer A. I can successfully connect to my computer A at my home by using static ip address. However, I am not sure how to connect to computer B since both computers use the same static IP address that is given by my ISP.  For example, at my home computer's Remote Connection box, I type 7x.8x.1xx.2xx. That IP address is for both computers.   I'm not sure how to distinguish the computer A and computer B. Any thoughts?

Let's say I have two active network connections that let me out to the internet.  I want certain applications to only use Network Connection 1, while some others should use Network Connection 2.  Is this possible in Windows XP? If so, how can it be done?

I have a Linux (Ubuntu 12.04) PC connected to the internet with a Greenpacket WiMax USB modem. I want to share the Internet connection with another computer running Windows 7 Home Premium, connected to the Linux PC over a LAN. Is this possible? How? Is the reverse possible instead (connecting the internet to the Windows computer and sharing it with Linux)?

Brief Description:  I need my Ethernet card (en0) to see all traffic under 192.168.2.xxx.  However I also need to use WiFi card (en1) for all other traffic.  OS: OS X Lion    I am using a separate network location to deal with this specific use (since this is a for a robotics project that communicates via Ethernet). Ethernet (en0) had to be set up as a static IP (192.168.2.10) per the requirements for the device I am connecting to. All connections on the Ethernet card (en0) should be 192.168.2.xxx as specified above. WiFi (en1) is set up as DHCP to a router since their is no point in assigning it as a static for general purpose traffic. Ethernet (en0) is set up as priority over WiFi (en1).  I would also like to keep this under the network location preferences if at all possible since I do not require this feature to be on all the time.  I would really appreciate your help on this. No one I have talked to knows how to solve this.

I want to make "Ubuntu 11.10" act as a router.  I have two LAN interfaces.   Let's say interface A' IP is 172.16.1.10 ;  interface B's IP is 192.168.1.10.   How can I configure Ubuntu so that 172.16.1.1 can connect to 192.168.1.1?

As the title says really, why do ethernet sockets need to be mag-coupled? I have a basic understanding of electronics, but mostly, I can't figure out the right search terms to google this properly.

My primary router has trouble extending wifi coverage to some bedrooms in the house so I am planning to add a second router to extend the wifi network using the wired Ethernet ports in one of the areas of poor coverage. Basic layout -   The ISP's router is in my family room downstairs (fiber connection) and the internet connects to the fiber via a box in an upstairs closet.   I purchased and installed an unmanaged Ethernet switch/splitter. In the upstairs closet where all of the Ethernet wires meet, the family room Ethernet cable was plugged into the ISP's box. I disconnected this wire and replaced it with a CAT5 cable running from the ISP's box in the closet to the Ethernet switch's port 1.  I think connected the family room Ethernet cable to port 2 and did the same in order for all the remaining Ethernet cables to various bedrooms.   So far, the switch is working fine.  I have wifi working with internet coming off of the router in the living room so I believe the switch is installed correctly otherwise that wifi should not have internet coming off of the living room jack.   Here is where things go awry - I took my second wifi router and connected the WAN/Yellow port to the Ethernet wall jack in another bedroom.  I then connected a lap top to one of the Ethernet ports on this router and found "no internet" after connecting.  On a whim, I changed the connection so that the router was connected to the Ethernet wall jack in one of the white ports but with the same results.   I don't think this counts as cascading and I don't really need a new network since I do not share the connection with any non-family members.  The router has been reset to factory settings to clear out any old instructions - but I still can't get it to connect to the internet or access the router to change the settings even - it's a netgear and the routerlogin.net will not let me access the router even when I am on the working WIFI for internet and have a cable running from the laptop to the netgear router.   I could use some help - just trying to extend the wifi range and it seems like it should be much less complicated. Tried following instructions in several other posts and they did not work for me - because I cannot access the router to change any settings.
