Hi

I am looking for a way to bind an application to a specific network adapter as i have multiple internet connections, however with a caveat. I have used ForceBindIP and while does what is stated, it won't work in my situation.

The problem i have is the application i use connects to the internet and also communicates via COM to an Excel spreadsheet over localhost (127.0.0.1). When i use ForceBindIP, i specify the network adapter to get internet connectivity, but this kills the link via localhost to Excel. Using ForceBindIP GUI i can specify localhost, however, then i obviously lose internet connectivity to the app.

I am looking for a way to enable my application to connect to the internet by specifying the adapter whilst also maintaining localhost connectivity.

Any ideas? Thanks in advance
 
If you have multiple internet connections surely forcing the machine out of a particular one via the router would be the easy way of achieving this?
