Your server has three adapters, with three IP addresses, two different dns servers
configured, two default gateways, and appears to be a member of a domain. A Windows
computer can use only one default gateway at a time. Any others listed can only be
used for dead gateway detection. So it may be using the wrong default gateway.

Since you have a DSL router already, I would scrap using the server to use rras/NAT
[unless you need it for VPN] and simply have all the computers use your DSL router's
lan side IP address as their default gateway. If your server is in an AD Domain, you
should not use the DHCP on the router and instead use DHCP on an internal server
which performs functions other than issuing tcp/ip configuration including
registering dns pointer records. Unless you have a reason to have so many adapters,
your server will work better with only one network adapter on the lan subnet -
particularly if it is a domain controller. DNS configuration is critical in an Active
Directory domain as described in the link below for Active Directory dns FAQ. I think
if you simplify your networking configuration, things will work better. --- Steve
