LP-Bridge is the free solution and you could possible even run it in a windows session under Virtual Box.


There are hardware solutions out there to do what you want. I had looked into them in the past when I was considering moving back to Linux.

Thank you (everyone). I'm a Linux user so was hoping for a HW based
solution but sounds like LP bridge is the answer based on the responses to
this thread. Dual boot, here I come.
