Hello Tracy, Ruben et al.
That's __PERFECTLY__ pointed out, indeed!!!
Did not even thought of such solution (why???) - thank you very much!
On my multi boot Desktop PC I use Windows and Linux OS'es as well.
Depnding on task I need to run...
Between my two ISP's and home LAN I have two separate routers.
Need to re-think what I have and what I can get with this.
Thank you very much for everyone who responded.
Happy New Year to everyone on the list!
Best regards.
