Can someone explain this me step by step?PLEASE/
 
Well you can static assign all the IP's a router is your best option and they very cheap today. As for configuring your second nic and getting the clients to get internet it is a little more detailed then just setting the IP's. You will need to have DNS running and DHCP on the server. As well you will need static settings from your ISP.
 
Borris you dont make sense. You say you have internet access through your DSL connection but then only list one IP address and say you it has no internet. It either does or doesn't. I shouldnt have work out what you are trying to say but I think you mean there is one network card with IP 10.10.10.2 and you have a USB DSL modem attached to the server whch you gain internet access from?

If this is the case it is fairly simple to set RRAS up. Run the RRAS wizard again and choose to set up a NAT device (cant remember the exact selection). When asked to choose your internal network and external network choose them respectively. If DHCP is enabled make sure it assigns out the default gateway of the servers IP 10.10.10.2. You should be good to go.
