I would like to use a Windows 7 PC with 3 Lan cards and 2 Wi-Fi as a router.

For example, I have a PC with 3 LAN cards and two Wi-Fi cards. I would like to use one LAN card to connect to the public Internet through some router, 1 Wi-Fi to connect to the public Internet through some wi-fi rounter, 2 LAN cards to share FTP (and internet from LAN) to 2 other computers and 1 Wi-Fi to create a hot-spot for sharing internet connection from LAN. Is it possible to do this using Windows 7 without installing any additional software.

I know that I can use router for this. I can't.

I know that I have option to share Network Interface data in Win7, but I want to be sure that my config will work.

All networks should be accessible on the PC acting as a router.

  • I am pretty sure your question would benefit a lot from some organization as now it seems more like a draft of a thought than a clearly written thought (don't take this grammar/writing nazism too hard). At the moment it is a bit unclear whether you have 3 LAN cards and 3 WLAN cards in one PC or 3 LAN/2 WAN or something else, for example. It might also be a good idea to draw a diagram of what you're trying to accomplish, using, e.g., draw.io.

  • How many internal subnets do you need? Does this computer really need to be windows 7, could it be something like pfsense or vyos? Is this computer's sole purpose a router or as a desktop computer too? If you are never going to use it interactively (keyboard and monitor) and want windows 7 for file sharing and routing only, I would recommend installing something like esxi, then have a windows VM for file sharing and a dedicated router vm like pfsense for routing (or vyos for routing and wifi, though it's more complex to set up).

  • @AlexBerry This is desktop PC I have to use. But I can install VMWare and install Linux over Win7, but I cannot install Win7 over Linux

  • Sure its possible. There exists an application called Virtual Router that works on Windows Vista and beyond.

  • Yes but that covers only the wifi side and not the other stuff.
