Some proxy servers use the MAC address or other identifier rather than the
IP address to determine the interface on which they will respond. Since you
have changed this interface, try reconfiguring or reinstalling the proxy
server.
Also: "Default gateways etc are all set to look to 192.168.0.1"
The only default gateway which should be set to 192.168.0.1 is the one for
the 192.168.0.99 NIC. The 192.168.1.1 NIC should have no default gateway;
and the other machines should all have 192.168.1.1 as a default gateway.
