Every now and then I have to transfer a large amount of data to my wife's laptop, so rather than use wireless and wait for 5 hours, I plug in some cat 5 from my pc direct to my wife's laptop.
When I plug the cable in however, the files are still sent through the wireless and it's only when I unpug my wireless dongle will the cable start being used, meaning everything is copied across in no time.
Why is the best route not taken, is there a way I can set this up so I don't have to ferret around the back of my poxy PC pulling out my wireless dongle each time?
