We are moving office locations and we will have 2 separate internet connections coming in with 2 separate wireless routers. Is there a way to have our main computer that stores files be connected to both wireless routers. It is a Windows XP Pro.

What abailey said, what exactly are you trying to do by connect to both networks?

If you have two network ports on the computer you can set an alternate static IP address on it and have it connect to both networks. Or just plug them both in and leave it to DHCP.

If you are in a business environment I would definitely suggest a hardware firewall and setup fail-over or load balancing with the two lines.
