  1. Windows 10 won't prioritize Etherenet for File Transfer


    Windows wont transfer files over Ethernet, It keeps doing so over WiFi, Unless WiFi is off, Then it transfers no problem. If WiFi is re-enabled Ethernet continues to transfer but only while that transfer is running

    Windows is up to date: OS Version 1809

    Drivers are up to date


    I have a small Ethernet Network I'm building for CompTIA Network+ Training. There are currently 4 devices online. (All APIPA because its just for private use only)


    1.Node00(Raspberry PI) Switch 1: 169.254.103.190/16

    2.Node01(Raspberry PI) Switch 1: 169.254.1.226/16

    2.Node02(Windows 10) Switch 2: 169.254.1.15/16

    4.Node03(Manjaro Linux on Laptop) Switch 2:169.254.10.21/16


    There are two switches involved,


    Switch 1(S1)

    -Node 00 & Node 01 Connected

    -Link/Act Connected to other switch


    Switch 2(S2)

    -Node 02 & Node 03 Connected

    -Link/Act Connected to other switch


    All IP addresses are APIPA addresses in the same subnet(/16) and can all ping each other and access each others smb Server shares

    Node 03(S2) can connect to Node 00(S1) & Node 01(S1) and automatically transfers Via Ethernet but node 02(S2) wont send via Ethernet unless WiFi is disabled

    So, Everything is properly connected and configured and both switches can talk to each other.


    I have tried prioritizing based on metric over power shell which did nothing


    [As Admin]

    >Set-NetIPInterface -InterfaceIndex 3 -InterfaceMetric 1

    >Get-NetIPInterface

    Index Interface Alias Address Family N1Mtu Interface Metric DHCP Connection State Policy Store

    3 Ethernet IPv6 1500 1 Enabled Connected ActiveStore
    6 Wi-Fi IPv6 1500 50 Enabled Connected ActiveStore
    3 Ethernet IPv4 1500 1 Disabled Connected ActiveStore
    6 Wi-Fi IPv4 1500 50 Enabled Connected ActiveStore


    So i checked Control Panel>Network and Internet>Network Connections>Ethernet>Properties>IPV4>Advanced to see if the priority showed the same, and it did


    I also tried completely resting all Networking Setting via: Settings>Network & Internet>Network Reset and redid everything with the same results


    So, now I'm just completely clueless as to why this wont work, Any idea's?

    If you need more information let me know and il get it

    :)

    Pressing “Windows+Pause Break” (it’s up there next to scroll lock) opens the “System” Window.

    Windows 10: In the new version of Windows, Explorer has a section called Quick Access. This includes your frequent folders and recent files. Explorer defaults to opening this page when you open a new window. If you’d rather open the usual This PC, with links to your drives and library folders, follow these steps:

    • Open a new Explorer window.
    • Click View in the ribbon.
    • Click Options.
    • Under General, next to “Open File Explorer to:” choose “This PC.”
    • Click OK

    Cable to transfer files

    OMG. I have never met anyone who actually bought one of those file transfer things.



    Firewire will do the same as USB, but faster, so will a cheap crossover cable. I can wlak you through the steps of moving data so you will not miss a beat.




    Anything more than $10 to buy a cable is too much.
