Network Bridge question

A

Anthony Nwokafor

Hey all,
If I have two wireless cards connected to my laptop and I create a
bridge using both wireless cards, will I be able to connect to the two
different networks from the laptop i.e. can I see computers on both
networks from the laptop or is the laptop just solely a bridge that just
connects the two? Thanks!

Ah - If you want to see computers on both networks you'll just need to have
both cards connect properly. A bridge connects the two networks at the
data-link layer and they will need to be configured appropriately for this to
work.

Thanks Goblox.

I totally misunderstood what a network bridge is but I've got it now.
Thanks again!
