The biggest problems would be that your routing table may show both
links as your preferred default route, and that will mess with
Internet traffic. Check the routing table via 'route print -4' and
ensure there's one preferred default (destination 0.0.0.0 with the
lowest metric).If there are multiple with the same metric you can
set interface metrics under the network connections \ device \ IPv4
advanced properties. If both networks have an internal DNS server
(providing addresses for internal resources) then name resolution
may be odd also - you may have to use IP addresses to access
resources and be sure of which ones you're opening.
This configuration is a potential security risk - if compromised
this machine could be used to access a restricted network and in a
corporate environment would be considered a breech.
Thanks Jamie, good point on the security risk. I guess I'll have to
talk to the client and see if this is allowed.
