Hi, I have two networks, one is connected to the internet and has 3 or 4 computers running off of it, the other network has my work on it and has no internet connection. Currently, I have a printer hooked up to the internet network, and have to keep switching the network cables around when I want to print out things via different networks.

What I would like to know is if I bought a second network card for my printer and hooked both networks into the printer, would this provide any kind of security problem? Basicially, could anyone work their way from my internet machine, through the printer and "into" my secure network? I dont think this is possible, but I just want to make sure before I go ahead and do this. Thanks

I have registered for the dormitory and in order to get an ip address i have to find the mac address of my laptop. I have typed ipconfig /all in the DOS but the computer didn't show the number. Also, using start > run doesn't work. What is the problem? What are the other ways to get mac address? I really appreciate your help since i must use internet as soon as possible.

I have dsl in my home and have 4 computers, we all have different networks ip's obviously, but what is weird is that we all have the same internet ip, not the same as cable, if i have a certain program running in a port off my computer, so i can access it from anywhere else, can i just put the ip address that we all have plus the port, or what?...

My desktop is basically going to be used by my 1rst grader, if needed, and my husband. I need to know if I need to set up a wireless network. And how do I do it? Do I need a wireless PC card for my desktop or only for my laptop. Is there anything special that I need to do to my PC to have the capability of the notebook and PC on the internet at the same time?

both a public and a private IP address which means we all have two. If that's the case why would anyone have 3 addresses on their computer when two should be the highest amount. Right?

If i link a sub domain to my IP address so that people can connect through my site instead of my actual IP, does that use my sites data transfer?

I set up a ventrilo server on my computer, and set an "A record" so that vent.mysite.com connects to my IP. will that data be sent through my site and use up my allocated data transfer?
