How to route traffic based on network adapter

by zesturian . Updated 16 years, 11 months ago

I’m looking for a solution to allow my laptop to communicate via two network adapters, one is wireless the other Ethernet.

I want to tell x application to use this adapter; however all others to use another adapter.

The case is that the Ethernet connection I use I prefer to do anything sensitive over, where as the wireless is a much faster connection so I use this to download with.

I am surmising this will involve using some form of proxy, or firewall filtering. Though my attempts at trying to implement such a solution on windows have proven fruitless.

I’ve managed to do it via linux following :

So if anyone can point me to applications or commands that would achieve the desired effect on WINDOWS XP, I’d be greatly appreciative.

Thanks.
