1howmanyunamesaretaken? Posted June 7, 2006 Share Posted June 7, 2006 (edited) Using Windows XP ProI've been trying to have multiple LA (Local Area) network connections on my computer.Specifically, I've been trying to have multiple LA connections such that, depending on what cable I plug in, I could quickly disable the past connection and enable the one I currently need. These LA connections would include:1) An LA connection for direct cable connection (via crossover cabling).2) An LA connection for a network where a router leases IP addresses automatically.Thanks.Thank you, I got my answer on this site: http://www.bc.edu/offices/help/meta-elemen...lained001.shtmlIt says: "Each Network Connections icon represents a different network interface."That would mean that I would need multiple ethernet cards. (more generally NIC's).Thanks anyways. Edited July 5, 2006 by 1howmanyunamesaretaken? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
