Problem with running broadband

Hi, I've got a problem connecting the broadband router to the local network. The server runs Windows Me (not the server version because of the firewall setup), and the computers connected to the server are on Windows XP. Because the range of the IP addresses of the local network are different from the range of the IP addresses given by the Broadband support (our network has static IPs), we installed 2 network cards, one dealing with the local net, other is connected to the broadband router (which has ADSL modem). We managed to connect via the broadband, but the problem is that it defaults to the modem in the server by default after a couple od minutes (at the beggining the network was getting connected to the Internet via that modem). COULD YOU PLEASE ADVISE!

why not remove the modem form the server?? If its not being used take it out or disable it. Also, there is only one version of Windows ME and it was for home use (there is no server version).

tanya it sounds more or less you have a problem with the router it self not ur clients/network ect..
Try accessing your router and look at your settings... sounds like some ports are blocked from the firewall, try opening the common ports if there closed
