[lug] Re: Cannot ping.... NIC dilemma...!!

Yes it is totally possible to have two or more NICs on the same
network. Setting up proper routing will do that for you. As for your
question, I will need to know your current network setup from your ISP
connection, on down to each box. For example, here is mine:

DSL Modem/Router -------wireless--------- Sweetums (Laptop)
|
| < Ethernet >
|
Knock-off D-Link 10/100 Switch
| |
| |
| |
| |
Fozzie Scooter
(wife) (mine)

Doesn't have to be drawn out like that, just describe it best you can.
Such as:

DSL modem acts as router and firewall connects to 8 port 10/100 switch.
>From switch is both fozzie (wife's puter) and scooter (my puter). The
DSL modem also has wireless built in, and sweetums (laptop) connects
through that.
