The reason I want to be able to do this is because...
I have an extra eth card and already have a network
going from my 2nd card to a hub (in another room) With
the extra card I would like to be able to plug in my
laptop to my main gateway computer (which I actually
use). I understand that I simply could plug into the
hub but for me it's in another room an would mean a 25
ft long cable.
Also, I think businesses would really like this
feature. (ie. = a great selling point)
