| Nov 18, 2015 at 0:53 | comment | added | J0e3gan | @PeterTirrell: It worked for me on a Win 7 Pro 64-bit machine back when I answered; but I just noticed a situation on another Win 7 Enterprise 64-bit where it did not work: the routing metric was 20 for both the LAN and WLAN interfaces even though the LAN interface was bumped up in the Advanced Settings > Adapters and Bindings > Connections list as shown. To fix the problem I had to set the WLAN interface's routing metric to 30 (i.e. higher than 20). So your mileage may vary I guess. | |
