i assume your gateway  217.34.100.198 can ping the above 2 ip#

the above might be bad... to have those ip# going to 2 different ethernets

good since its the "2.0" network

good since its the "1.0" network

good cause eth0 is the way to get out to the world ??

so anything on eth2 ( 192.168.2.xx ) will have occasional "slow problems"
( aka timeout )

but everything on eth1 ( 192.168.1.x ) seems fine ??
