Dual NIC's to different subnets.

Zoomer

I have two NIC's on my computer with a SonicWall firewall enabled on LAN2, LAN1 has no firewall and can get on to the internet. All I want to do is be able to remote to my two computers on LAN2. Everytime I enable the LAN2 NIC, it "takes over" and the firewall comes up on the web browser saying I have no access. I can give it access, but all I want to do is connect to two PC's on LAN2 from time to time. It's been a long day, but what am I missing?

[LAN1 NIC] IP = 10.0.1.4 SM = 255.255.255.0 GW = 10.0.1.1 DNS = 10.0.1.8
[LAN2 NIC] IP = 192.168.1.8 SM = 255.255.255.0 GW = 192.168.1.254 DNS = N/A

Only 1 default gateway should be used. For the other NIC (the one not with the default gateway, add a static route (use route add command in windows)).

Other than that I don't know if it's something in the sonicwall(?)

Can only have one gateway. Pick, one, and then use static routes to allow the other subnet to get to wherever it needs to get.

Sweet it works! Duh, I forgot about the setting of the second GW. Thanks guys!
