Hello, I have a windows 2000 webserver with 2 nics one for the internal address and 1 for external address(web) the internal talks to my db the problem that I am having is that sometimes after 30 minutes others after a couple of hours the external nic goes out hence bringing my website down. I have to stop and re-start the nic and the IIS service then the website comes back up. I tested the nic and it seems to be ok, not sure what else could be the issue
