Okey
doke.
It is
easy to have 2 network cards in a PC, with each having a different IP
address,
which will appear as two separate LAN connections.
Another option (though a wee bit more expensive I guess) is to have
a
normal LAN card in your PC and an ethernet to wireless adapter that you
plug
into it when on the wireless lan, so you only have one device in the PC,
and
DHCP takes care of the IP assignments, depending on which network you are
connecting to....

Certainly possible
Tony (I've just had a quick try using built in XP networking and it is
pretty
simple to set up both at the client and server end.) It would however be
preferable to have a local connection for bandwidth reasons. I often just
bung
a CD in the drive on my machine when I want to install software (using
terminal services) on one of the clients.

I assume you
mean
you want to be able to connect your wireless pc to
the
co-located
network?
Why not set up a VPN
so
you can connect in that way. The advantage is
that
when the co-located
network
moves somewhere else, you can still remotely
connect to the network for support
etc.
Dunno about doing this
in
software, but using a pair of Draytek ADSL routers
it is a piece of p*ss
:-)
