Lastnight I got a hub from a friend and decided to hook it up and plug two network cords into the two network adapters I have in my computer, (on board, and PCI). I tried it to see what Windows XP would do, and it assigned me 2 IP addresses. So my question is, is it possible to set up mIRC so it can connect to an IRC with either of the IP's with out having to disable one of the network connections?

Well first thing I'm going to ask is do either of these IPs begin with 192.168? If so those are local IPs, they don't exist on the actual internet so they can't be used to access servers. If I remember, 10.0 also has the same effect.

Try going to Options -> Connect -> Options. Click the advanced button. Try checking the "bind to sockets to ip address" and specify one IP or the other. That should force mIRC to use that one IP.
