Title: two identical NICs in win98SE
You may be able to mangle your protocol.ini/system.ini files to get around this by renaming one of the connections. Win98 *may* still use them. It would also be very easy to break all your networking.

Subject: [Ethereal-users] two identical NICs in win98SE

Hi, I'm having a problem that I hope someone has seen before.

I installed the 0.9.1 windows binary distribution on a windows 98SE PC.  This PC has two identical 3Com 3C905B-TX NICs.  When I open the capture window, both of these interfaces appear as 'EL90x'.  The problem is, when I try to select the second card, ethereal jumps back to the first one.  Is this a bug in the GUI?  Is there a work-around?

Thanks for any input.

David Nicoson
