Some of my questions might be RTFM, but I'm still trying to figure out which manual that might be.- d2 q; a1 l0 }6 _: h# U2 R
U" h" T5 c" S* J4 O9 sHere is my set up:$ n$ }5 x5 n( Q& c
I have 3 ADSL connections (2Mb, 1,5Mb and 1Mb - from 2 different ISPs) which I want to use all together to provide access to the internet to our clients via WiFi and a few stationary PCs.' O: ]. h" ]! f" z8 l
The server I want to use has a total of 5 NICs, so I want to use 3 of them to connect to the ADSL modems, 1 to a switch to connect the access points to and the 5th to a switch to connect the PCs.$ z+ j. @9 B; S( y

As I am in Bolivia, I have no access to the ADSL Modems, so I am stuck with their configuration all of them using the same IP range (192.168.0.x) and Subnet (255.255..255.0), I hope it will still be possilbe even with 3 NICs in the same IP range (?).

Interfaces eth0, eth1 and eth3 are set up to be the "External" interfaces, I have to give them Static IP's because other wise they will not pick up an IP address from the modems. Other computers (Windows & Mac) do get the IP's from the modem via DHCP without a problem." F, W; L; p2 u* E* L6 m, ]; {, J
% a/ S/ G! o, q! \! i$ `: yFor the "Internal" interfaces I try to set them up with DHCP servers and fixed IPs but anything I try to connect won't pick up an IP.9 @" m3 P% `& X9 B& O
I read that 2 DHCP servers on one network are not the best idea, but I guess if the network is created with that NIC and I connect a computer directly to that NIC it should get an IP?) n* C6 q. U0 A# B) Z
