I am trying to set up a ClearOS Multi-WAN / Loadbalancer Gateway for our clients in my hostel." F5 d$ m& q/ Z4 N$ r

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.# u! g( O7 P% X& U5 N2 {
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.

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 (?).

But that's not where my trouble starts.

, b6 h& y0 h& T x" r4 b# ^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.

For 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.7 Z$ P0 r" |3 }6 V I6 F
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?. n7 h; j6 q7 P" C6 q9 Y+ a

Then, even if I assign a fixed IP to the computer connecting to the LAN interface, I don't get routed through to get out on the net. I can't even ping 8.8.8.85 E9 A5 P2 U+ q6 L7 o
