Re: [gentoo-user] a second and third network card: init.d/???
Thanks for the answers. I MIGHT have gotten wireless working: have to wait until the router is working to find out. These answers help.

Alan Try /usr/src/linux/Documentation/networking/bonding.txtIn my experience (granted, i've not tried this with gentoo), bonding only works when both or all nics in the trunk are the same chipset,same driver.I'd be astonished if you could bond the wireless nicwith a wired one.If the other two are the same chipset, you willhave more luck, but remember that the network device ( i.e. switch)into which they are plugged must also support bonding. That's all TFM that you will need. -- ** Registered Linux User Number 185956 FSF Associate Member number 2340 since 05/20/2004Join me in chat at #linux-users on irc.freenode.net Buy an Xbox for $149.00, run linux on it and Microsoft loses $150.00!7:31amup 37 days, 21:56,3 users,load average: 0.46, 0.54, 0.46 -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list--gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list -- ~/.signature

Do the same for each network card (make symlink to net.lo) and adapt /etc/conf.d/net accordingly (read /etc/conf.d/net.example). HTH...
