    I have two broadband lines and two lan cards on PC is it possible to have both connected at same time one is Esat BT the other is IBB. IIB is great for downloads and Esat is great for gaming.

    Lucky *******. ;) I have precisely zero BB lines.

    You could have both connected simultaneously but you would probably need to do some specific routing configuration to get individual destinations/applications/protocols to connect out via a specific ethernet interface.

    I presume what you have in mind is IBB pulling down your downloads while you're gaming on Esat's nice low ping service?

    get a second computer, much easier :p Just get a cheapo crap one, and hook IBB up to taht, and then you can game on the good one, and download from the crap one.
