    Force profgrams to use specific network adapter


    Okay so here's my situation. I have on my desktop 2 network adapters (1 pcie, 1 usb), both wifi, and I have access to 2 wifi connections, my home wifi and my phone over 4g. I would like to be able to play games with the 4g connection of my phone because of better stability and use other programs on my home wifi. I've heard there is a program that can help me with that (forgot the name) but that on windows 10 it is no longer compaptible.

    Anyone can help me?

    Issues with network adapters

    Hi Alfonso,

    To resolve this issue, we suggest that you run the Network troubleshooter when you switch from WiFi to Ethernet connection. The Network troubleshooter can help diagnose and fix common connection problems including clearing the network cache to obtain a new
    IP from the new network. Kindly follow the steps below:

    • In the search box on the taskbar, type Identify and repair network problems, and then select
      Identify and repair network problems from the list of results.
    • Follow the steps in the troubleshooter and see if that fixes the problem.

    If the issue persists, kindly try the troubleshooting steps on the following link:

    Fix network connection issues in Windows 10    .

    We recommend that you try the steps on the Update the network adapter driver,
    Run the Network troubleshooter followed by networking commands, and Use network reset to reinstall network devices sections.

    Let us know how it goes for us to assist you further.
