i go for adding an extra lan card for pc# 1

BUT if the two modems act as modem/router

configure the LAN side of the modems to have a different series

add additional ip address to pc # 1 thru advanced options.



in this network, the pc 2, pc 3 and pc 4 can access pc 1. vice versa.

ours is much more complicated....

a view of my current ip addresses



notice the two ip series that i added 201.197.186.X and 202.197.186.X

I think I did this before. I'm not sure because that was 4 years ago, butwhat I did was I also added the gateway of the other ISP to all the the pc in the network in the advance settings so that in case the other ISP encounter a problem each workstation will look up to the other one.

First, let me show this diagram.



So we have two ISPs. PC #1 is currently connected to one ISP, and #2,#3, and #4 are all connected to the other ISP via an 8-port hub.

My question is...how do I make PC #1 be a part of the network that PC's #2,#3, and #4 all belong to? I simply want to be able to access files in the 3 other PC's from PC #1.

If possible, the solution should not include adding a router or setting up an VPN, etc etc.

Any help is much appreciated, thanks!

================================================== =============

you must buy dual wan router-- you configure wan 1 for static and wan 2 for dhcp address then all pc client connected to the fastethernet of router.. yan lang bro simple ra..

Again, just add a NIC on PC#1 but use a static IP address instead for it, so route won't be confusing. Just use the 'route add' command on DOS using the network address of the PLDT-MyDSL and IP address of the newly installed NIC on PC#1 as gateway.

Goodluck!
