Why do you think it would?
What do you think NLB does?

Hi.

From what I read I allows to work with clusters and balance the traffic
between servers. Right?

But I activated it and my server start to detects my networkd card as a 1GB.

I have no clusters server.

Regards,
Marco

Yes, between Servers, not Nics.

It would more accuartely be called "Server Load Balancing". I think when
they called it Network Load Balancing they misled people.

I just wanted to make sure you understood that and weren't trying to run two
nics in the server. As far as the specifics of running NLB with two servers
I'd better let someone else handle that,..I have never done it.
