Many people now have two computers, as to enable both to access the network, they often make use of the dual network cards to connect their computers and make them as a local area network (or LAN), which would cost much less than purchase a wireless g router. However, sometimes due to the model and the quality of these two adapters or your PC compatibility problems, they have a conflict. How can we tackle it?
Using dual NIC cards to access the network is only a temporary plan, if there is some problem when applying the double cards connection, we should consider troubleshooting it from the aspects below:
Computer restart
Generally when you finish installing some software, Windows prompts you to restart; sometimes you think it a troublesome and reboot the computer till all software has been installed. You’d better restart your PC when installing the first net card and then turn to set up the next one. Because when installation is over, the system not only would assign the interrupt request and the memory available resource to you network adapter, but also configure the port and the IP for it, actually it is more convenient for your PC to carry out its work by rebooting and then installing the next adapter.
Net card speed and connections
When you build the network, you should think over the communication problem between the 10/100M and 10M network adapters: when they are interconnected in two computers, you would probably find that they are not reachable across the IP network, or they are shown connected normally but you can not browse the website. Such errors often happen when two net cards with different transmission speeds exchanging their data packs. To resolve this failure, you can try to contact your 10/100M network adapter to the external line and use an adapter with the same speed in the inner connection.
