Are both Ethernet cards plugged into the same physical network? (This
would be a little weird.) If not, you get into the situation where
the router tries to contact the ADSL box, and discovers it has two
ways to get there (both interfaces are connected to 10.0.0.0/8), and
guesses wrong.
I suspect you probably want to reconfigure your ADSL box to be on some
different IP address (say, 192.168.0.1), and then put in
/etc/network/interfaces:
auto eth0 eth1
iface eth0 inet static
address 192.168.0.2
netmask 255.255.255.0
broadcast 192.168.0.255
gateway 192.168.0.1
iface eth1 inet static
address 10.0.0.4
netmask 255.0.0.0
broadcast 10.255.255.255
This results in:
10.0.0.0/8 +--------+ 192.168.0.0/24
To internal network <------ eth1 | Router | eth0 ------> To ADSL box
+--------+
(If you're unfamiliar, a.b.c.d/n is CIDR notation, meaning "a network
with network address a.b.c.d and the high n bits of the netmask set";
10.0.0.0/8 means "the network 10.x.x.x", 192.168.0.0/24 is "192.168.0.x".)
