I need advice on how to best cascade two multi-wan routers:
Each router is connected to multiple DSL lines using load balancing.
Each router's Lan is on a different subnet.
The outermost router has Lan DHCP disabled and feeds a static ip into one of the Wan ports of the 2nd router.
The 2nd router has Lan DHCP enabled, and connects to the home Lan.
The system works, but suffers from severe latency and slowdowns.
If I remove either router from the cascade the network is blazing fast.
I know there is the issue of double-nat, plus possible loops causing the slowdown.
If anyone can suggest configuration changes, I would be grateful!
