Computer with 2 gigabit ports for two subnets

[mwhitnell 0]

Ok, My system is connected to a 10mbs dsl line as most of us have. I have 10 cameras on my system, with two computers, 2 TVs, wifi cell phone. Running BI the download speed slows from 10mbs to 1.5mbs, basically I can't stream Youtube on my computer. Is this feasible...run two subnets one to each gigabit port, using two routers, one with no dsl so no internet, but put all cameras on this, the other router for internet using the dsl. Probably the computer has two ports into the mb, but the throughput is probably only 1gigabit, which should be fast even so. So i can't see the cams remote, but I can live with that.

yes you can isolate cameras on their own network. As you say, cameras connect their own switch that connects to port 1, then port 2 goes to modem/router for internet.
