Dear Members,

I was reading a few posts and saw something about installing two Nics so one could use Full Duplex. I remember back in the day of dial up, you could have two modems and use one for upstream and one for downstream. This was called shotgunning. It seems that you can now do the same with Nics. I am guessing that you would just put two Nics on your board, then hook up both cat5s to the switch. However, I just have to ask; won't that cause collisions? Anyway, I was wondering if you all would like to clearify some of this and help me with the actual software part of setting this up in either BSD or Linux.

Thanks alot!
