How to use two network cards at the same time?

I have two network cards:

enp4s0f1: flags=4163<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,MULTICAST>  mtu 1500
        inet 192.168.0.180  netmask 255.255.255.0  broadcast 192.168.0.255
        inet6 fe80::2b14:8e31:6d4b:d724  prefixlen 64  scopeid 0x20<link>
        ether a8:1e:84:8c:fb:38  txqueuelen 1000  (Ethernet)
        RX packets 2352125  bytes 3392624997 (3.3 GB)
        RX errors 0  dropped 0  overruns 0  frame 0
        TX packets 885625  bytes 61615312 (61.6 MB)
        TX errors 0  dropped 0 overruns 0  carrier 0  collisions 0

lo: flags=73<UP,LOOPBACK,RUNNING>  mtu 65536
        inet 127.0.0.1  netmask 255.0.0.0
        inet6 ::1  prefixlen 128  scopeid 0x10<host>
        loop  txqueuelen 1000  (Локальная петля (Loopback))
        RX packets 3142  bytes 300770 (300.7 KB)
        RX errors 0  dropped 0  overruns 0  frame 0
        TX packets 3142  bytes 300770 (300.7 KB)
        TX errors 0  dropped 0 overruns 0  carrier 0  collisions 0

wlp3s0: flags=4163<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,MULTICAST>  mtu 1500
        inet 192.168.0.117  netmask 255.255.255.0  broadcast 192.168.0.255
        inet6 fe80::83ef:eb3d:58c0:8c3c  prefixlen 64  scopeid 0x20<link>
        ether 3c:a0:67:fa:be:8d  txqueuelen 1000  (Ethernet)
        RX packets 945335  bytes 1230791402 (1.2 GB)
        RX errors 0  dropped 0  overruns 0  frame 0
        TX packets 178906  bytes 23943428 (23.9 MB)
        TX errors 0  dropped 0 overruns 0  carrier 0  collisions 0


I want them to work at the same time, but right now they use the same subnet 192.168.0.0.
In the NM settings, I wrote the following and wlp3s0 refused to work in principle:
source-directory /etc/network/interfaces.d

auto lo
iface lo inet loopback

auto enp4s0f1
iface enp4s0f1 inet dhcp

auto wlp3s0
iface wlp3s0 inet static
address 192.168.1.117
netmask 255.255.255.0

The right question contains the answer.
What do you mean "use two network cards at the same time"?
What do you want from them?

First, it would be good to decide on which interface the traffic will go to the gateway. Then - consider whether it turns out that the response to the packet through one interface will leave through the second - in many distributions this behavior is not handled by default.

Wired and wireless cannot be combined into one bond. That is, it is possible, but it will work poorly, a lot of incomprehensible glitches.
If addresses from the same subnet are simply registered, then only one interface will be used, as a rule, the one that rose last.
