Doubledown

I have a computer running Windows XP Pro SP2, and i have a ADSL, LAN, and
Cable connections coming into the server.

What I want to do, is share the DSL to the LAN, and have the server
accessing the internet through the cable line.


(pretty much, i want all my computers on the lan to use the DSL for
Internet gaming, and i want to use the server for downloading)

Now when i first set up XP, it worked by bridging the dsl to the lan. But
for some reason now, when i access the internet on the server, its using
the DSL line.

Any Ideas?
 
Its probably not the best thing to do. You should ideally
have a web server for the lan - adsl connection.

If you point each NIC to the correct gateways it could
work. Some one more experienced should be able to tell
you for sure if it is possible or not.
 
Hi.

One way to do it.

You server should be connected to the Cable service Directly.

Your DSL should be connected using Cable/DSL Router and the LAN's computers
(not the server) should be plugged into the Cable/DSL Router.

Install a second NIC in the server and use WinXP Native Bridging in the
Server to Bridge the two Networks.
