I have a simple 10/100 Mbps home network with two computers, a print server,
and a NAS. All components are connected through a Linksys 10/100 cable
gateway (modem/router/switch combination.) The NAS supports Gigabit and I'd
like to connect it to (at least) one computer this way for increased
throughput. I assume that the Gigabit components need to be on a separate
network, right? If so, how do I do this, yet still have access to the other
network? Do I install NIC cards in the computer, one for 10/100 and another
for Gigabit? If so, does Windows XP automatically know how to route the
packets through the right NIC or do I have to do some configuration to make
this work?
Thanks.
