With PPC2003, I find it very annoying that I can only connect to either Work
(LAN) or Internet (WAN) but not both at the same time (not without setting
up a proxy or VPN anyway.....). Is there any solution to this?

Basically, my setup is an HP 4150 and using a WRT54G at home. I have a
server on my LAN which I keep most of my files so I would like to see it on
my PPC (for video/audio streaming etc) and yet be able to access websites on
the net.

Any insight and/or solutions will be greatly appreciated.
