I was wondering how to divert all the broadband traffic in a lan through a windows server 2003 system (installed on high end desktop) with one nic card.. You can't do it that way. To make it work would require 2 (two) NIC's. This isn't the best idea anyhow as it would mean having to leave that computer up and running 24/7 in order for everybody else to access the internet. How many ways are there to share and what is the safest and easiest way... There are a couple ways. The safest and easiest would be to spend around $50.00 (CDN) on a SOHO Router and use it instead of using another computer.

Yep, the best way to share Internet is to get a router (wireless or Ethernet router) and set up a wireless network or wired Ethernet network.

Curt R please can you tell me how to share internet with 2 nic cards but mandatory is the internet traffic should go through my server
