Need help with two LAN port

[gamepagol]

I have one inbuilt motherboard LAN connected to my Router. Now I have installed another PCI-E Lan card and want to connect Cannon ir2870 printer to the 2nd LAN port as all ports of my Router has already used by other peripherals.

I printer (Cannon ir2870) was previously running using the Router, but dont know how to connect it the 2nd LAN port.

Please help

Thanks in advance.

Buy a 5 port or 8 port switch instead.

else bridge the connecttions

Just get any entry level switch (if you dont need gigabit) or get a gigabit switch.

Would advise against bridging.
