How to setup on additional NIC on my W2K? I have one 3Com card with my cable modem, and put an additional card (that's work fine on another machine) to connect to my home LAN. This second adapter doesn't work, the taskbar indicator show 0 packets send/received. When I use ipconfig /all all details about 2 cards are showed.
Sounds like the second card that isnt working....may not have the correct drivers installed or is not configured right. I run this computer with two 3com NIC cards and it works fine. So it can be done.

hmm some more infos could be usefull... first of all: be sure no driver probs if the cards working fine then try to ping both : " ping 192.168.0.1 " "ping 10.8.0.1" eg both cards should be in different subnets means 255.255.255.0 for lokal card 255.0.0.0 for i-net card test your config with pinging ( disable firewall for testing if present) pinging works .... fine your cards work anything else are probs between you and your clients
