Rushdi,

How do you get two IP addresses on the same PC? I have a similar
situation at my home office. I have a cable modem attached to my
ethernet hub, and my PC has a static IP address for internet access(BTW,
it is VERY nice to download 40-50 emails in under 15 seconds). I would
like to attach the same PC to my model 150, with the same ethernet card,
using TCP/IP. But I can't set the AS/400 for an IP address within the
same range as my ISP, so my PC can't see the /400. I would love to be
able to do both.
