Here is my set up:
6 R I9 T6 z1 v$ u! p; K' |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., n- {+ y* i7 m7 r- N# j4 Z9 K
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.$ e5 `" O- l: `% v2 K5 B
; F0 ~8 d& h% Y1 K7 n' i
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.7 E8 A1 ]' W! i* D" @: L
3 W" B" X+ }0 I; N/ ^
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.8 H3 n% Z# C* J* A. I
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?2 F& X' E- G; d9 N. x, E8 h/ |! ^5 w

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 8.8.8.88 R1 ~! H0 s4 H$ ^, v9 B& }
