So I have wifi card connected to router #1. I plug router #2 into the same computer with the wifi card and I lose internet. How can I fix this conflict?

IP address conflict?

Depends on what Operating System you are using, if using Windows Vista/7 etc you will have to disable your Wi-Fi connection because it will cause conflicts within your OS, it doesn't like 2 active network connections. Hope this helps

What is the other router for?? Internet too?? Why are 2 routers connected to the computer??

Yeah most routers default to 192.168.1.1

I would start there.

Yeah I'm using vista, but have used multiple connections many times before. I think I just need to adjust some settings.

CMD in start menu

ipconfig/release then reset router then ipconfig/renew wait then check connection...

try that....

To utilize two internet connections(if thats what you have) you need a router with dual wan inputs/ports...or get a linux distro, ubuntu comes to mind.
