hello all,

I have a multihomed server here (Windows 2003 server) with 2 standard network cards. One is 192.168.2.2 (mask 255.255.255.0) with no gateway. the second one is my internet connection with my external ip and dynamic DHCP settings from my ISP. So far so good.

If I use the standard procedure in RRAS server in Windows 2003 and route all the internet traffic to the external NIC (NAT), then the serverlist in Battlefield 2 is very quickly build and the pings are below 100ms.

When I install ISA server and make just 1 rule: Allow, All outbound connections, internal, external, and I start my serverlist again, everything is VERY, VERY slow. What's the explanation of this. There are no other settings done at that moment. Just simple ISA 2004 + the rule I just told about.

Anyone any ideas ?
