On my 701 with win 95 I am doing the exact opposite with a Megahertz combo card. The office connection is a DHCP and the dial up is "fixed" I put fixed in quotes because you can set whatever you like for dial up. So ..... it is possible, it did take some tweaking.

I don't know about W95 but for 3.1 I use cisco's (formerly TGV until cisco bought them - TGV has been doing VMS extremely well for years and started the pc software just before cisco) package works fairly well. You can have many dialup nets, all different - just click on whatever and use it (in addition to a normal ethernet network), after you've entered a configuration for it, of course.. This is one of its nicest features - I'm out in the field a lot and this makes it all pretty easy. The down side is it's $199 a copy and some parts of it could stand some improvement (telnet windows sometimes change size when used a second, third, etc. time, sometimes finger doesn't put line feeds in the text it displays - little stuff like that). Take a look at www.tgv.cisco.com for more info. This is probably not the only package that can do this, but it's the only one I know about... Billy Y..
