Nic Binding order--- Windows 10 with 2 nics

Hi all,

I have read just about every thread on this issue and cant seem to get a straight answer. In the past, I could assign the nic binding order by changing the metric and it would stick through reboot. Along comes Win 10, and it doesn't seem that it works.
I have tried the various suggestions on these forums (Powershell, registry hacks, etc) but nothing seems to work. I have assigned both of my Nics static IP's but no matter what, it always defaults to the Nic that I don't want to be primary. I am wondering
(I dont think it does) if the Nics that I have installed ( a Killer nic and normal Intel nic) are causing the issue based on the placement/installation on the mobo? Like I said, I am swinging for the fences here trying to figure this out. I have never had
an issue before. The "Outside" adapter is what I want to be primary. Thoughts?

Thanks in advance.

Windows uses wrong NIC in a dual NIC setup, Ignores metric at times.

Well can I manually force it to not do this or force it to a specific mode? I mean it works fine 90% of the time but then seemingly randomly Windows will just push all traffic that previously went on NIC 1 to NIC 2. So I can use NIC 1 and NIC 2 simultaneously for hours and then suddenly Windows will stop using NIC 1 for all normal traffic and try to use NIC 2 instead, even though my firewall blocks all applications from using NIC 2 (which I think it should realize and start sending the traffic via NIC 1 again)

It's not actually two different VLANs, it's the same LAN, same subnet. Just that all applications should take NIC 1 to reach it and Tixati NIC 2 to reach it. The routes reflect this by NIC 1 and NIC 2 having the same settings just that NIC 1 has a much lower metric which should mean that Windows should use NIC 1 instead of NIC 2.

Nothing like that is done with the VPN, the VPN part is working great. The VPN is running on the router and has two connections connections and the router routes traffic from NIC 1 to VPN 1 and NIC 2 to VPN 2, so everything there is working great. The thing that isn't working is the dual connections between router and computer, I don't want Windows to load balance or bridge or fallback, I want Windows to treat them as two different networks of which only one should be used by it which is NIC 1 (But NIC 2 should be enabled and available so that Tixati can force itself to use it)

Although it sounds like Windows just won't let me set this up? Sounds like it forces what it thinks is best for my system even if it isn't? I guess I'll just have to disable/enable NIC 1 every time it happens then.

Thanks for answering. =)
