Shareing two internet connections on the laptop running Windows XP

broadbandinternetnetworkingwindows xpwireless-networking

I have two internet connections, one is internet via our organization's corporate LAN network, and the other one is mobile broadband via a USB modem

Is there anyway I can share internet connections and use them simultaneously? I want to use the corporate LAN network for normal browsing and connecting my email client, and I want to use the USB modem for establishing a VPN connection.

  • Will I be able to maintain both the
    connections simultaneously?
  • Can I have parallel downloads, one using
    our corporate network, and the other
    one using the mobile broadband?
  • Will I be able to switch my browser
    between these two connections?

My laptop runs Windows XP Service Pack 2.

Best Answer

If you have two Internet connections coming in via two different adapters, i.e. USB and Ethernet, you could just bridge the two together.
