Wingate Very Troublesome

[Passi]

Good Day,

I have installed Wingate at one of my customers and Wingate has been acting up from day 1. Basically my setup is the following:

1. Local Network Card ( VIA Compatable NIC with IP 192.168.2.254 and set in Wingate as Internal )
2. Wireless NIC ( D-Link 520+ with IP 192.193.194.56 Set in Wingate as External)
3. PC is running WINXP Pro, service pack 2 with Wingate 6.0.3. Firewall and Internet Connection sharing is disabled.

I have an ADSL PPPOE connection setup which is connecting to the service provider through the wireless NIC. The wireless NIC is thus seen as a dialup adapter.

Wingate works fine when I disable the ENS driver. Users can connect through normal proxy using port 8080 and it works, at a very high speed might I add. As soon as I enable ENS it slows down to a snails pace. Nobody can connect, although the connection is still connected.

I have noticed the following:

1. There is NO activity for ENS shown in the activity tab in Wingate.
2. I can ping from the Wingate pc something like www.wingate.com but as soon as wingate is started I can't ping anymore. Resolves but no reply.

DNS is enabled and started in Wingate and pointing to an external DNS server.

Does anybody have any ideas, because I don't know where to go from here. I can't afford to keep ENS disabled because then we lose access for certain programs.

You could try disabling the firewall in ENS to see if that changes anything.

Yes,

That would be an option, I am not at the customer at the moment to try it though. But then, I would lose firewall functionality which defies the purpose doesn't it?

Double check your network setup (ipconfig /all and route -print) and make sure that you only have one default route as well.

Update: Saw your adapters are marked correctly. Can you email me the details requested above, this might be one for our driver gurus to look at.
