These are my setup options, brute forced them all and nothing is any good. I am either not getting connection or there are strange problems with connection out and resolving dns.

ESXi options:

Cant really do much debugging... is it even possible?

    Unfortunately, your goal of adding bandwidth really won't work the way you expect.

    See: VMware NIC Teaming - How to gain more than 1Gbit/s copy speed between two VMs?

    If more bandwidth is required, you'll have to move to 10GbE networking.
