Why am i losing connection using 2 multihomed pc’s in the same 2 networks?

Locked

Hi All,

I’ve a computer which operates in 2 networks, 1 NIC in the production environment and 1 NIC in an Office network.
In the same network an other computer is using the same two networks using 2 NIC’s.
The production NIC is using IP 10.10.0.0/24 and the Office network NIC is using IP 192.168.1.0/24.
Both computers have setup a default gateway on the office NIC for connecting to the internet.
After 6 hours of data transfer on both networks my computers loses the connection with my production network.
If 1 computers is unplugged from the office network everything works fine.

Can anyone help me where i can find a solution keeping both computers in both networks?

Do you have a server?

It is best to have a server for this type of work, that way a backup is performed in the background. Having two network nics on one computer is the cheap option until you run into bandwidth problems like you seem to have here.
