AN unrecognized port adapter may mean that you do not have an IOS image that is high enough to support it.

How to enable second port?

CCO?
IOS (tm) C2600 Software (C2600-I-M), Version 12.1(5), RELEASE SOFTWARE (fc1)
The NM-1E2W is not supported in C2600 series routers. It is for the 3600 series.
Sorry
