Can i have 2 network adapters

Forum General Networking : Firewalls Can i have 2 network adapters

Word :    Username :           
 

Hello,
I want to use 2 network adapters in the same computor. 1 will route thru our domain/network/firewall/internet. The other will bypass everything and go straight out the same internet but through a different router. I need to get to a website that for some reason our firewall blocks a few functions on that site. When I bypass the firewall everything is good.

You can install as many network adapters as you like. Just one caveat; Windows will only use ONE for any given subnet (based on which adapter has higher priority). If any others are based on the same subnet, they are ignored.
