Can an expert please tell me why my PC has two Gigabit LAN controllers?

Posted: 08-08-2008, 09:01 AM
My computer motherboard is an ASUS P5B premium which contains dual gigabit
LAN controllers. I am using one for my home network and everything works
fine. In these circumstances I do understand why a second gigabit LAN
controller is provided.

Am I missing a trick here somewhere because I cannot see what purpose this
second controller might serve. Can someone please tell me?
