Greetings,
I currently have wireless and wired NICs in my XP machine. Here is what I
am attempting to do:
All default traffic should go out over the wireless. The traffic to one
specific machine should go out over the wired connection (a machine sitting
right next to it).
The first problem I run into is that when I activate the wired connection,
it becomes the default connection, and all traffic goes out over it. I.E, I
can't see any other machines on the network nor get to the internet. How
does one control the priority of the NICS? You used to be able to do this, I
think, under NT just by assigning a number. However, that option does seem
to be available under XP.
The routing table makes it look like it uses both interfaces to resolve
routes. However, the results, and monitoring the connection say otherwise.
Once that problem is solved, is it just a matter of adding a static route
for that particular ip so that it uses the wired interface?
TIA
Brian
