Nilesh, I read that you managed to fix it, but for completenes and, if applicable= , a different solution would be a router with 2 or more WAN-ports that can do the routing for you. Added benefit there would be that if the fiber connection dies, it would be able to automatically route everything through the ADSL. -- Joost
