Subnetting

ryoko
Does anyone know of some nice web resources that detail subnetting? I understand the basics, however there is a lot more that I would like to brush up on. Any advice would be appreciated. The hollidays have me tapped out for a bit, so I'm avoiding buying any books on the subject.

Dual Nic and default internet nic

tkhobby
I have two nic and two internet connections each on 10Mbit. one of them has a 100/10 switch attached to it and it seams that all the internet trafik is routed though it as default. I wonder if there is a way to tell windows xp that the default connection should be the one connected to the 10Mbit ?.
