Hello world!
I have Windows XP Pro.
I wonder if I could configure ONE computer to be connected to the Internet
both using ADSL and CABLE.
Of course,not simultanously.Just to have 2 Dial Up Connections (not
analog,but PPP virtual ones) and use them one after another.
ONE-PPTP (VPN) for Cable modem connection and SECOND-,say,PPPoATM for USB
ADSL modem connection.
I have a NIC and my cable modem is connected to it.It's LAN and I have
172.2X.X.X IP address from cable Co. at all times and when I want to connect
to the Internet I Dial to my ISP and get an external IP address from
it-80.179.X.X in my case...(each time it's different,naturally)-Open Access
type.
I have USB port and I can get a USB ADSL modem and use a PPPoA type of
connection with it.
And to use the same ISP (whether with the same or not account with it-it
doesn't matter here)...
The way I understand it-it should work OK...The unclear part is.....is it
the NIC or the modem that gets 172.X.X.X address? In Cable....Some ppl don't
have NIC's in their PC's...they use USB Cable modems...but they would still
have that 172.X.X.X address...so it's not the NIC,but the modem who gets
it....or am I wrong?
If I also have a USB ADSL modem,then that modem would get a 10.X.X.X IP
address from TELCO at all times
So the bottom line is....the way I get it....my Cable modem would constantly
have that 172.X.X.X address from Cable Co ( same as my NIC).AND my ADSL
modem would constantly have 10.X.X.X address from TELCO.
Whenever I use a Dial Up PPTP VPN adapter it would get a 80.179.X.X address
from my ISP and I would get on the Internet using cable infrustructure.Then
I disconnect...Then I'll use a PPoA connection (the virtual adapter is
installed ,using a software that comes with the ADSL modem-Globespan ALE
series...) and I would get also 80.179.X.X address from ISP,using my another
account with it (the ADSL one).
