How to set preference for wireless and wired network for specific apps

S

I've both connections on my XP SP2 laptop: wired lan connection and
wireless connection. The wired connection lets me browse corporate
network and is overly firewalled while wireless connection (coming from
somewhere else) has no restrictions. I want to use wireless connection
for some applications (like Rhapsody music jukebox) and wired
connection for accessig corporate file shares.
How do I do this?

Shital.

Problem solved! Disable wired lan connection. Connect to Internet.
Enable lan connection. Now when you access network, it goes through
wire lan and for Internet, it goes through wireless!
Long live unsecured wireless access!

Until the company discovers that you have an unsecure computer on their
network.....

People who have unsecure wireless routers leave the router password default.
Be sure to change it so no one chnages the wireless settings.

Hey! that does not work for me. I always get new IP address through wired
LAN.
