Hi...

I'm currently trying to configure a network for a client. They have 3
separate DSL services coming into the office. There are about 12 PCs
running on the network. The goal is to have let's say computers 1-4 on
one DSL service which has static IPs, computers 5-8 on the second DSL
service with dynamic IPs, and computers 9-12 on the third service also
having dynamic IPs, yet enable all to connect to the server running
Windows 2000. The other PCs are running WinME. How can this be
acheived? Is it all achieved simply how I use the routers, or must i
use dual nic in any of the PCs or the server? Any help is appreciated!!

I'm going to take a stab at your question even though you are a bit unclear. How many IP's does this person get per DSL line? Assuming only one 1 IP per DSL line, you could buy a router for each line. Assign each router an internal IP to coincide with your internal network. Let's say your server has an IP of 192.168.0.1. You would make one router 192.168.0.2 on the LAN side, 192.168.0.3 for the second and 192.168.0.4 for the third. Then pick which computers you want to use which line. Use the LAN IP of the router you want to use for net access on that computer as the gateway address. I might be a a bit unclear as well since i am tired right now, so let me know if you need clarification.
