Access the network via two NIC's

Hello,

I use an XP based workstation suing two NIC's (no bridging is made between
the two). Each NIC connected to a different LAN that is supported by a
difference DHCP server. Each NIG gets its own IP address.
How do I access a specific LAN ? How do I know what network is accessed by
my browser ?

You can only have one Default Gateway. It will follow that.
If it is a "specified route", then it will follow that.
If you have two Default Gateways it will follow the nic highest in the
binding order (if you are lucky) or will just create a mess if you are not
lucky.
