I have 2 networks - one is wired with a shared internet connection - the other is wireless to be used for file sharing only. I have ONE computer that will use both networks but I can't get it to see both networks - just one or the other. I do not want the wireless network to have access to the internet. How do I bridge the one computer to see both networks without allowing the wireless network access to the internet connection?

Also - the two networks have different IP ranges.

with both interfaces engaged, no ics running, can you ping the ip address of each card? If at a cmd prompt you type route print and hit enter what is listed?

Golly gee wilerkers everyone. Learn to Internet Search
