You can easily accomplish this without two NICs in the server. If you
don't have a switch on the 2wire, then buy a little 10/100 switch.
Code:
--------------------
2wire - SlimServer
- PC via wired Ethernet
- Laptop via wifi using WPA-PSK
- NetGear router - Squeezebox via wifi using WEP
- Other wifi devices using WEP
--------------------
2wire WAN: (whatever)
2wire LAN: 192.168.1.1/255.255.255.0
SlimServer: 192.168.1.2/255.255.255.0
PC: 192.168.1.3/255.255.255.0
Laptop: 192.168.1.4/255.255.255.0
NetGear WAN: 192.168.1.5/255.255.255.0
NetGeat LAN: 192.168.2.1/255.255.255.0
Squeezebox: 192.168.2.2/255.255.255.0
I don't know if the Squeezebox will automatically "see" the SlimServer
on a separate subnet, but if not, you can manually enter the IP address
of the server.
