Is it possible to tell the card which connection to use?
I have 2 LAN connections one IP and one DHCP but occasionally they get messed up, and I loose the DHCP.

Thanks
 
The easiest solution would be to set both NICs to a static IP; then DHCP isn't an issue.

However, you may wish to google NIC Binding Order.



Just my 2¢
