Setting One NIC to send and the other to receive

[covert24]

I have a IP35 pro and want to set one of the connections to send and the other to receive. I know you have to set the priority but i dont know how to do it in vista. Let me know guys!

You tell me how to do it with XP, and I will tell you about Vista.

First, what are you trying to accomplish by sending on one NIC and receiving on the other? I have seen variations of this done with servers but it required the right drivers to support it.

i dont know how to do it in XP.. i have never done this before and want to see if there is any noticeable difference in speed.

If you are hoping to see a difference in speed, you will not see any difference. As long as your NIC is operating in Full-Duplex (which it should be unless there is a problem) it can receive and transmit at the same time.
