Windows 2000 has a feature that allows you to team 2 NICS together, but all the documentation that MS has references clusters with NLB or Load Balancing. Currently I have a VPN server with 3 NIC'S I'm trying to team 2 of them and 1 will be my static connection to a DSL line. I'm using Link Sys NICS and they don't have their own teaming utility. Any ideas or step by step docs on how to team 2 nic together with Windows network load balancing. (When you team Intel's Nics together they use 1 ip address for load load balancing and create a seperate wan miniport) In windows 2000 software both links stay alive and you have to assign different IP'S so it's not really load balancing it.
