I have only one network adapter, and need to access 2 networks in LAN at the
same time using Windows XP professional. Their IDs look like this
192.168.0.x(255.255.255.0) and 192.168.10.x(255.255.255.0). How can I do
this?

Thanks

You can buy another cheap Nic for $15 dollars and avoid the whole "twisted"
issue.

Static IP address, enter the addresses as desired.

He's asking about adding a second IP# that is not part of the same subnet.
IP#s on a Nic are supposed to be all from the same subnet because all of the
other TCP/IP settings are "global" for the entire Nic and apply to every IP#
running on it.  You may get "lucky" if they both happen to be using the same
subnet mask (although I'd still never do it), but if they use a different
mask you are screwed because you can only have one mask per Nic.

No, in alternative tab of TCP property dlg you can add additional IP/subnet
masks for multihome computer

Ah! You're right. Sorry. But I still would avoid it.  Running two IP
Networks on the same wire just isnt a very good idea. There should be a law
against it,...it's like a guy wereing a dress or something,...it should be
defined as a "act of terrorism" maybe.

Agree with you , but XP by itself give such opportunity called bridge option
( in Advanced menu of Network connections )

Well, yea,..but that isn't the same thing. That would be two Nics in the
same subnet, not two IP#s from different subnets ont he same Nic. Of course
I don't like this "bridging stuff" they came up with (XP & 2003)
either,...there are too many better ways to do things like that.
