I have a couple of client companies which want me to connect to their
internal LANs through a VPN, and have VPN client software from different
VPN vendors they want me to install on my PC to accomplish that. However,
only one VPN client can be installed on a PC at a time, so I would have to
have two PCs if I wanted to link to both client companies' LANs through a VPN.

Someone suggested that I install a second NIC in my PC, set up a second
hardware profile for the second NIC, and install one VPN client using the
first hardware profile on the first NIC, and the second VPN client using
the second hardware profile on the second NIC. I'd have to reboot each time
I wanted to connect to another LAN, but at least I would not have to buy a
second PC.

Question: Can this two hardware profile implementation work?
