Nic Picker

I have three NIC's on my computer, one does internet and office network, another is ETCNet, and another is Hognet. I've learned that windows will route the appropriate traffic to the appropriate port if you only enter a gateway for the internet NIC and leave the others blank. For the other two I just have a static IP address and a subnet mask. 

The Internet NIC is in the 192.168.1.*** range

The ETC NIC is in the 10.101.101.*** range

The Hognet NIC is in the 172.31.0.*** range

I can go into IE and type in a web address and then type in 10.101.101.101 which is one of the dimmer racks, windows switches seamlessly to the other NIC card to communicate.

For working in the field I recommend Free IP Switcher.  You can get this exe from http://www.eusing.com/ipswitch/free_ip_switcher.htm.  What I like about it is you can setup your network configs once, then select your network card and assign the parameters that you desire.  This works perfect with Laptops without adding an additional NIC.
