Ya but you wont be browsing the web twice as fast. you can only use one at a time, unless you want wired for internet and wireless for a home netowrk.

It would help to know your goal.

ammobox, two internet connections or two LANs? If you are thinking of "binding" two internet connections together the best you'll be able to do is load-balancing (i.e. you will not be able to use both connections simultaneously to download a single file).
