Hi All,
My company has a small LAN consisting of 10 computers including a Domain Controller. All workstation has been given an IP of 192.168.1.X series. We share broadband internet connection attached to a Workstation(192.168.1.1).
My problem is that when we have problem with broadband connection or if ISP is having some problem, workstation's take too much time to start.

The ISP connection should not affect the workstations starting up unless they are running some kind of software on startup that demands an internet connection. Do you have good AV and anti-spybot software running?
