I don't know whether it helps or not, but we put in policy routes so that every four or eight routed subnets were NATed out through a different IP address. Something like:
192.168.248.0-192.168.255.0 goes out through 208.14.222.10 192.168.240.0-192.168.247.0 goes out through 208.14.222.11 etc etc Since putting these rules in, a lot of our NAT issues have gone away. We have a LOT of customers on Facebook and Hotmail, and they get very vocal when stuff isn't working, so I know that it is working well for the most part. This is on a StarOS NAT box, but we are going to be replacing it with Mikrotik in another month or so.
