I have two network that are connected throguth a T1 both have ther own
internet I want to add one gateway for the internet and a second for the T1
trafice for the two locations. windows XP staticly set work fine. windows
2000 that pull there information for the DHCP server work fine. but Windows
2000 that have a staticly set gateways do not work on the seond gatway.
 
Use the Internet Router as the Default Gateway,...then on that Router is
needs a Static Route added to it for the "other network" that uses the
Router for that particular network as the "gateway" or the route. Repeat
this in both networks.

If you don't know how to add such routes to the Internet Routers, then get
local help. You can't afford to do it "wrong", and it isn't something I can
do in a newsgroup message.

The whole thing is kind of a bad design, but this is the best I can suggest.
You want "routing" to be handled *centrally* as much as possible (meaning at
the Routers). You don't want to have to configure routing on each
individual machine,..that is just a mess waiting to happen.

You can also add the routes directly to the computers in a startup script.
You'd just have one default gateway, and - say you're remote network is
192.168.10.0 and your local T1 gateway is 192.168.100.1, just make a
one-line batch file:

route add -p 192.168.10.0 mask 255.255.255.0 192.168.100.1

That should work also. I prefer adding the route to the default gateway
router as Phillip suggests, but I've done it this way where I didn't have
access to the router and the company that managed it was uncooperative.
