I want to use two Diffrent Dsl connections on one computer at same
time on diffrent browsers.?

I have (XP PRO)
I have 2 DSL service connections on 2 different phone lines.
I have 2 modems, one for each connection (Huawei SmartAX MT880 Modem
and Azatec Adsl modem).
with 2 NICS

Setup is as follows:
NIC 1 LAN - Ip 10.0.0.2, Gateway 10.0.0.1 , DNS 0.0.0.0.0.0
Huawei SmartAX MT880 Modem is conented to NIC 1


NIC 2 DSL IP 192.168.1.3 Gateway 192.168.1.1
Azatec Adsl modem is conented to NIC 1


i am not asking about
(Combining Bandwidth or Load Balancing two connections).


I want to be able to run one browser (i.e. Internet Explorer) to
utilize the 1 DSL connection and run a different browser (i.e. Mozilla
Firefox) to utilize the the bother DSL

connection.

What I'm *not* clear about, is how to tell each browser which
connection to use.

i have used Dsl and cable connection (cable was isa server client)
like this last year but now i want to us 2 dsl connections


please help me how to do it? do i need a software to do that?

thanks

To the best of my knowledge, but there's no way to configure a web
browser to use a specific Internet connection.

You can configure access to a web site to use a specific Internet
connection, if you know the web site's IP address, by creating a
static route. But that would affect all web browsers.

How about using the "connections" tab under Tools - Internet Options (IE).
Post if you have any success

Oh that's easy. Well easy to tell you how to do it, bit of work for you to
set it up.

Install a Virtual Machine application, such as Microsoft's Virtual PC, as
we're on a Microsoft newsgroup.

Install your operating system(s) of choice in a virtual machine.
Tell your new virtual machine to use one network card as its route to the
interwebs
Tell your 'real' machine to use the other network card as its route to the
interwebs.
Enjoy your system doing what you wanted it to do.

Without the virtual machine? Not so easy. You're going to have _big_
problems with routing. I'm sure someone's just itching to jump in and
explain how their personally created version of Dead Badger Linux can do it,
but no sane operating system is ever going to be completely comfortable
doing what you're asking for here.
