Hi,

My laptop is connected to 2 networks; wired: ofice network and wireless:
ADSL modem. I want to be able to use them simultaneously without requiring to
remove ethernet cable every time I want to use Internet. I have lowered the
metric of wireless connection but still have default gateway of wired
connection.

I have also Microsoft Firewall Client for ISA Server Version 4.0 installed
ans set to an ISA server on ofice network.

Instead of:
route -p add 74.125.* mask 255.255.255.0 192.168.1.1 METRIC 5

You probably should have entered:
route -p add 74.125.0.0 mask 255.255.0.0 192.168.1.1 METRIC 5

I'd try it without the "-p" option until you're sure it works, then
enter it with the "-p" option

HTH,
John

Hi
Since it is a computer that is using office Network. It might be that there
are some restriction on such connections.
Talk to the IT person in charge.

Remove the default gateway on the wired interface so you only have one
default gateway which is to the wireless. Then add a static route for
the wired network which will be something like
route add 10.3.0.0 mask 255.255.0.0 10.3.19.34
