I need to get the NIC load balancing right. Does anyone
have any ideas?

The internal Nic is doing all the work, and i want to
spread it between the two.

Should I have the external NIC ip address in the
10.xx.xx.xx range, or am I way off altogether?

Hi Adam

I'm not sure what your trying to do here. Why would you
want to spread the load between the 2 cards? One is on
your internal network and the other is on the external
network. They look after data from different networks so
there is no work to share between them.
