Backup link to Internet

[Guest]

Hi there,

I would like to know if its possible to have two Network interfaces (1 wired
(default) , 1 wireless (backup)) with different gateways and have Windows XP
Pro SP2 perform automatic routing to the wireless network if the gateway for
the wired connection goes down.

What are you using for your current gateway?

I'm using ISA 2006 as my wired gateway, but that machine always crashes..
Haven't got time to reformat it yet. Thinking of using wireless access for
some pc's to bypass the ISA machine

What's an ISA 2006? Do you use a router for the actual connection?

yup, i use a router with wireless capabilities for connection.. but my wired
connections pass through ISA 2006.

ISA = Microsoft Internet Security and Acceleration Server (firewall + proxy)
