    1 Network 2 Internet Sources

    Hiya i would like to know something about a network.

    I would like all my computers to stay on the same network 192.168.x.x but use 2 seperate intenet sources (routers) for example.

    Upstairs i have my office with my company's servers which i want to put on their own dedicated 1mb Line but remain available on the network.

    Upstairs i also have my bedroom with my main pc in, which i want to use the second internet source which will be located downstairs and shared via a WAP.

    Is this possible or would it cuase some major problems becuase all i can see is needing doing is telling the appropriate computers which default gatweay and DNS servers to use.

    Cheers

    I reckon this would work ok - just have a router at each internet connection, give each a 192.168.x.x IP, have 1 set to DHCP for the whole network - now set the gateway to point to the desired way out (as you said) - you would need to connect the 2 routers with a cable or use wireless ones.
