Re: Second Ethernet



I actually tried that, but this stupid bios won't do it. For some reason it won't put the second nic on a different IRQ. Still, I don't think that's the problem any more. I took the second nic out and configured the remaining nic to DHCP. It still didn't pick up the ip, etc., from the cable modem. Man, I miss the days of having 5 IPs and a straight line to the net!

Subject: Second Ethernet


  
I'm trying to configure a second ethernet adapter in my fedora computer.
The original is connected to my internet network, the second will go to
a cable modem and then out to the internet. The problem I'm having is
the new adapter won't pick up an IP from the cable DHCP. I've checked
and the cable modem is definitely looking at the mac of the new nic.
Another thing I'm noticing is that this machine is configuring both nics
to the same interrupt. Is it possible that this is what is causing the
problem?
