Hi
What exactly you are trying to achieve, if you are using a Windows Client
(Not a server) OS like XP, or Vista there is No real functional use for
such arrangement.
Simple...
I want all the PC's on the LAN except this one to surf the internet through
the router.
I want this one PC to connect to the internet through its 10/100 card. I
don't want any traffic from this PC to affect internet bandwidth available
to the other PC's on the LAN.
I want all the LAN PC's to be able to access the files on this PC through
the GigE card.
If you want to use both Internet connections you should use a Dual WAN
Router.
I've got one and it's a piece of junk... It crashes with even only moderate
amounts of traffic. It ignores bandwidth settings for each port. I could not
get port forwarding to work properly.

My PC has two network cards... One is an onboard gigabit connected to my
LAN. The LAN is connected to a router, as are other PCs on my LAN. The
router is connected to a cable modem. The second NIC is a 10/100mbit PCI
card connected directly to another cable modem.
The GigE NIC is hardcoded to an IP on my private network with the
following settings:
IP: 10.0.11.16
Mask: 255.255.255.0
DNS: 10.0.11.1, 64.59.135.143
Gateway: 10.0.11.1
Gateway metric: 100 (previously auto)
Interface metric: 100 (previously auto)
The 10/100 NIC pulls a dynamic IP from my cable internet provider and
currently has the following settings:
IP: 68.145.38.197
Mask: 255.255.255.0
DNS: 64.59.135.143, 64.59.135.145
Gateway: 68.145.36.1
Gateway metric: auto
Interface metric: auto
The router is configured with my private network info on the LAN side and
dynamic settings pulled from my cable internet provider on the WAN side.
Currently configured as follows:
LAN side...
IP: 10.0.11.1
Mask: 255.255.255.0
Gateway: 10.0.11.1
WAN side:
IP: 68.145.78.218
DNS: 64.59.135.143
Gateway: 68.145.76.1
At this point I'm unable to connect to any services on the 100mb port,
and up until my last settings changes and reboot I was not even able to
ping the 100mb port. My last change was to put the gateway and interface
metrics on the GigE port to 100 to ensure any remote traffic was going
through that interface, and to keep my local LAN traffic on the GigE
interface. I believe I should not have applied a metric to the GigE
interface though.
At this point I cannot connect to any services on either port. Before my
last settings change I was able to connect the the remote desktop through
the GigE interface, but not any longer.
What I am trying to do:
- Any PC on my LAN, except this one, should use the internet connection
through the router.
- This PC should pass local LAN traffic over the GigE port only.
- This PC should pass internet traffic over the 100mb port only.
The PC's on my LAN are all hardcoded for the 10.0.11.0/24 network.
Gateway is 10.0.11.1. This appears to be working.
This PC does not consistantly pass it's internet traffic through the
100mb port. I've tried removing the gateway IP from the GigE port,
changing the gateway metric to 100, and finally the interface metric to
100.
What should I be doing to make this work???
