Correct networking setup for TWO different networks
Posted: 18. May 2009, 12:48
Hello All,
Apologies if this has already been discussed, although I couldn't find anything relating exactly to what I want to do.
I have a Vista host and a Windows XP guest. I have two networks,
one via an Ethernet cable - ISP A.
the other is wireless (Netgear WG111V2) - ISP B.
I have fixed IP addresses for both networks. ISP A - 192.168.2.10 and ISP B - 192.168.1.55
For my guest, I am using bridged networking and selecting the Netgear adaptor. This works as it should and I go out via ISP B. However, I find my host is using ISP B as well. I have changed the metric to 'force' the host to use ISP A (via the Ethernet card).
Has anyone else had a similar scenario/problem to this and what is the best way of setting up networking?
Thanks in advance for any help/advice.
Mark.
