Problem with two Network Card on WK3 server

We have WK3 with two NIC and the following setup. The problem is that one
of
the default gateway will something disapear. We have to manually repair the
connection to re-enabled the missing gateway.

Internet DSL 1 <--> Gateway 1 NAT (192.168.1.2) <---> WK3 Server
Internet DSL 2 (backUp) <--> Gateway 2 NAT (192.168.1.4) <---> WK3 Server

you should not setup the same IP range in a multihomed computer.

Resolution: The 2nd NICs should use the different IP range. ... Answer: An existing
IP address on the network has the same IP address. ...
