Help RRAS crazy!

[Jeavon]

Hi, I have deployed RRAS on a Win 2k server as i have a NO-NAT ADSL connection. It seems to be working but it is very very unstable, when browsing the internet using a computer on the network that goes through RRAS it is up and down, one second it is fast then the next is very slow or even unreacable, however on the server it is always super quick, can someone please help?

Thanks

More info on the client side would help. What os are they using? Anything in the event logs? Good luck.

The event logs are not reporting any errors or warnings.
The clients are using Windows XP.
I have re-written my problem with a bit more detail below:

I have two networks, one contains all computers with external IP address's (Net A) and one with the majority of workstations and only internal IP address's (Net B). Net A is connected to a ADSL router. I have a Windows 2000 Server with a DHCP server and RRAS running, this server has 2 NIC one for each network, the server is assigning IP's to Net B without any problems. I have installed NAT in RRAS using the wizard and it does work however, when using a computer on Net B the internet is very strange, one second it is extreamly fast and the next incredably slow or even unreacable, but when using a computer on Net A is is always lightning fast!

Thanks for your help!
