I have server 2003 sp2 ent installed and i have a connection problem or configuration.

I have installed my modem speedtouch 330 configured my username and password from the ISP and it all works fine now the problem arise when i configured my network card. I have a static IP address from my ISP

i set all the static IP and DNS setting on my NIC and no problems but when i restart my pc the modem does not recognize my username and password and i have no internet access.

i then realized i had to diable my NIC and start the internet dailer and it works fine and i then re-enable my NIC and the both seem to work fine. i have a static IP address from my ISP and i have statically configured this on my NIC these setting also are on my modem not static.

i run server 2003 sp2 ent and i want to enable dhcp, dns, etc so how can i have both the nic and ISP working without having to disable one and reenabling it after the other.

the problem is only with the recognization of my username and password with my internet dial when the network card is is on. ISP bulldog communication, modem standard speedtouch 330 and NIC realtek

If you have broadband why stick with your dialup modem, as far as i know the speedtouch 330 is a usb connection type, and always with this type of modem the connections always drop, if it is because of the fax then you could always enable when you need it.

basically what i am trying to achieve is a server that is always avaliable on the web but i need to understand a little better.

i have a static IP address from bulldog communications but i want to link it to my server so i can access the resources via the web e.g. OWA & citrix but not sure how to link the static IP to server.

i have a router linksys 300N which is configured and has DHCP all turn on but my static address is also my default gateway so how do i link the IP to the server which wii be the default gateway to the internet for all clients.

i have tried NO-IP.com and redirection to port 80 and port forwarding which works to a certain degree but my exchange server is not responding to outside address, when i ping i get as far as the static IP.

using the roters dhcp i bascally stole an ip adrress and configured it statically and i want to redirected all OWA and remotley anywhere server and FTP request to the server.

I used the modem to get an internet connection but i wanted to configure the server NIC with the static IP address so the all web applications can access the server but use the modem for constant internet access but DNS querys pointing to the server.
