2 LAN Cards, Merging different networks

asbshyam · Jun 6, 2013

I have two LAN Cards in my Desktop, First card connects to a SOHO network (DHCP) and the second card connects to a Imaging Device (Manual IPs). The imaging device and Second card work like a Ad Hoc Setup.

What should I do to be able access my Imaging Device across the SOHO network, since it can only go through my Desktop. Can I bridge the two LAN cards, how will that work??

If possible, you would need to setup connection sharing on the LAN nic for other to connect to the image device.

Could you pls explain more, do you mean Internet Connection Sharing or ? Will I be able to ping the Imaging Device from outside my desktop?

Yes, basically use ICS to share one nic network connection, you can't ping it as will technically be on a new network, should end up with something like, although ICS may set it up a different way ..
