How does one get two networking cards to go at the same time in Suse Linux 10.2? I have eth0 which is wired network, and eth1 which is Wireless. If I connect to the wireless using network manager, it disconnects the eth0 network, connects to the wireless eth1 for a few seconds, disconnects eth1, then goes back to the eth0.
I have two wired network cards on separate networks. I can switch back and forth between them and the connections stay stable. I'm with you I would like to know if there is a way to get both active at the same time. Something like the old dual line modems.
Are you trying to put both interfaces on the same network (both have the same net mask)? That is problematic. Otherwise there is no trouble with multiple cards. My wireless network is different from my wire one, so it 'just works'. with two cards. In fact, in our products, we always have two cards - and two different networks.
Having said that, there is one small issue with YasT that has been this way for years. It will not let you give different names to the cards. After assigning the system name, it is applied to both cards. So, you need to edit /etc/hosts and give one card (IP address) a different name. That is the only issue I have ever had.

No, they are two different networks. The network cards are already two different names, eth0 and eth1

Guess I need default to go to 192.168.99.1 but have not figured out how. I can ping eth1 IP address with no problem from linux.
Simple. It can be done in Yast where you configure the cards. In Advanced Options or something like that. It is called the default gateway. On the 192.168.99.1 network, is there a gateway or a switch or something? Give that IP address as the gateway and all will just work.

For some reason or another, the gateway entry block in Yast is greyed out. Art -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
