NetConfig PC Configuration with Two NICs
If NetConfig does not discover the devices you expect to see on a PC which
has two or more Network Interface Cards (NICs), this may indicate you
need to change the setting of the default gateway for the PC.
NetConfig sends broadcast messages to discover devices on the network
which are then displayed in the IP and Device views. Broadcast messages
are sent via the NIC which has the default gateway assigned to it. If the
devices you are expecting to see are on the LAN attached to another NIC,
then you must make that NIC the primary NIC for the PC, so that it's
gateway address is used as the default gateway for the PC.
If you have two or more NICs, use one of the following two methods to
assign the default gateway.

Method 1 - Adapters and Bindings Tab
1. On the PC desktop, right-click on My Network Places and select Properties .
