If you have installed two network cards in your PC will your PC have two IP addresses?

Answer

Yes. Each MAC address (each network card has its own MAC address) requires an individual IP address on a network.

In XP you can bridge the connections in Network Connections, but I have never actually figured out why this is preferrable (perhaps if each card is connected to separate networks).
