Hi all,

Basically I trying to set up a vista pc to use 2 different networks at the same time. Now my problem is that both networks have internet and I'm not sure how to tell vista which one I want to use for internet.

Just to make things a bit clearer I connect to the first network via wifi to a router. I need to use file sharing and internet via this connection.

The second network is connected via lan to a router.Again this connection also has internet but I don't want to use it, I only want to use this connection for file sharing.

At the moment vista connects to both networks at the same time fine but will show one network as local and internet and the other network as local only and it keeps swapping them around.

Any ideas how to configer them properly?


Thanks for looking.
 
Setup one of the networks manually without a gateway, let the other get the ip details from dhcp (the one you want the internet from).
