Here's what I'm trying to accomplish.
I have a windows 8.1 PC "A" that is connected to wireless router "X" via wireless USB adapter "01"
Wireless router "X" is my main and only source of internet. Router X is very slow, when streaming to PC "B" and "C", as well as any other network connected device, ( smart tv, tablet, game console, etc )
Wireless router "X" has good download speeds but sucks at media sharing.
I want PC "A" to be able to stream content to other devices lag free.
I have another router ("Y") that I would like to use as a completely private streaming network while PC "A" remains connected to the internet via router "X".
I have an identical Wireless USB Adapter "02".
Is it possible to connect USB Adapter "01" and "02" to PC "A" simultaneously to connect to router "X" (which is for internet) and router "Y" (for streaming content)
The biggest reason i want to do this is to stream my steam games (as well as other media) to my crappy laptop, while maintaining a constant internet connection to my primary PC.
The internet connection to the other devices is not as important as long as my main PC retains internet connection at all times. I can swap those others back and forth between "X" for internet and "Y" for media.
I hope this all makes sense.
How can I configure these two separate NIC's and separate networks on the same PC?
