Windows Deployment Services -> Loss of internet connectivity

Hello to all!

Setup: W2k3 Server with DHCP, DNS, Active Directory, Routing (NAT) Roles enabled. Works perfectly.
It has 2 NICs, one that goes to an unfirewalled router (DSL) and the other that connects to the switch (LAN).

EDIT: Basically a NIC for Internet and a NIC for Intranet

As soon as I install Windows Deployment Services I can use the WDS normaly to deploy OSs throughout the network but I lose internet connectivity. DNS works though (I can resolve all addresses I tried).

EDIT: I lose internet connectivity both on Server and all Workstations.

I have installed all updates and have tried to install WDS before configuring Roles as well as after (clean formating in between each attempt) I have also tried to disable the Local Area NIC, but I still don't get any internet traffic.

Sorry for going on but I fear I have tried everything except move to W2008 server.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Thank you
