  1. wired to wireless connect


    currently I have two ISPs. one that I've connected to "internet" via ethernet wire. I have a second ISP that I can connect to wirelessly. How do I change from the current wired connection to the wireless connection, Win 10 64.

    :)

  2. Automatic disconnect wireless connection upon a wired connection

    Hi,

    I have a problem with automatic disconnecting wireless connection upon a wired connection. This is my situation and solutions I took but none of them worked:

    I start Lenovo laptop and when it boots, it connects to my home wireless network (I want this to happen; following settings are sets on that network: connect automatically when this network is in range, connect to a more preferred network if available).
    What I also want is that when, in specific situations, I plug LAN cable into it, that wireless connection would be automatically disconnected and automatically connected when I unplug it.

    Following solutions were taken, but they didn't produce a wanted result:

    • setting disable upon wired connect on enable on a wireless adapter
    • setting wired adapter on the highest priority
    • setting wired autoconfig service on automatic startup type
    • route print shows wired metric 10 and wireless metric 11
    The result that was produced: when I connect LAN cable it shows connections: first wired, second wireless, but both of them connected (both interfaces got IP address) and on windows tray it is still shown wireless connection icon not wired.

    Windows 10 - Wired and Wireless connection simulataneously

    Dear All

    I would like to use mi Wireless connection for OneDrive for business and Ethernet wired network for the rest.

    Is there a way of achieving that?

    Any help would be much appreciated.

    Regards

    1 wired + 1 wireless connection issues

    Hi,

    I have been trying to get my computer working in a home network through a router with a wireless connection, while at the same time having internet provided through a wire.

    The reason this is an issue is because the wired does not go through the router while the wireless of course does.

    The issue I am having is that when both are connected my internet connection comes through the wireless and not the wired.

    What I want is for the wireless to connect to the network while the wired connects to the internet.

    I am using windows 8.1

    Thank you,
