Windows 7 - why the priority of network adapter is ignored when you are connected to the area on a lower priority NIC?
I have two network cards installed on my laptop. I wanted to test and see how Windows 7 Ultimate managed the priority of the network adapters so I connected to a small Internet (NIC B) router, and the other on my domain (NIC A).
First of all, it was a pain to find network adapter priority. After some research and fun Google I found this. Unfortunately, the search bar has not helped.
Control Panel-> network and Internet-> view network status and tasks-> to modify the adapter-> Hold down 'alt' to bring up the menu "File"-> select 'Advanced'-> select 'Advanced settings' in the menu drop-down-> adjust your priorities of the adapter in the 'Advanced settings' window, under the tab "maps and links.
With "B NIC", defined as the highest priority, I tried to browse the internet. It was impossible to travel. Then I disabled 'NIC A' (the NIC domain) and I can browse the internet. Windows XP he handled this much better.
Select 'NIC A', and then check 'NIC B' is the highest priority. Then try tracert on www.google.com. It refreshes my domain as the first hop router. It seems to be completely ignoring 'NIC B', unless I have disable 'NIC A' completely.
In case someone of another Vienna here, looking for the answer to this, as I did, I thought that putting the real solution to this question. Many web pages say to change the priority of going on
It does not work. He has apparently no effect on the use of connections. What Windows actually uses is the metric value for network connections. The lowest metric value is tried first. In my case, I have a connection broadband shabby home, but I can attach wireless on my phone for occasional good bandwidth. So, I want to always use the connected wireless and ignore the wired connection, but still the chance to printers and other things on my network cable at the same time. I want to keep both on and not to disable the wired when I use my phone. To resolve this problem for real, go to
The Automatic metric is defined by Windows based on the speed of connection and a wired connection is generally faster than a wireless one.

Lose connectivity to the virtual computer on your laptop when you are disconnected from the network
Hello
I have a laptop with a Windows 2003 virtual machine (VPC 2007) with IIS 6.0, hosting a Web site for testing and development.
Using Dreamweaver and navigation on the site of the XP laptop (VM host) works very well when the network cable is connected.
Interestingly, this will work, but VERY slowly when plugged into an empty network switch.
The virtual machine has the laptop computer adapter selected to work. I tried to use a loopback cable and it did not work. I also tried to add the MS Loopback Adapter but not had any luck with that when you set the virtual to use.
Please can I have some suggestions, laptop user wants to work on this site with the virtual machine when you are away a network connection.
Thank you
Tom
Hello
Try a static IP on the same subnet to re-branded to map of loop back on the virtual machine and the host.
Make sure that the subnet is allowed through the firewall.

Hi Alison, Sameh
The reason why you see directions is not available, it's that for cards of Apple, turn-by-turn directions is not a feature that is available in the Qatar. You can search for places and satellite imagery

Why the last OS update cost me gigabytes of data when you are connected directly to my computer and ISP via Itunes. 29 February 2016
While it is connected to ITunes via my Dell system, I was informed of the latest OS update for my IPhone 6. I decided that the direct connection to the internet would be the fastest way to download and install the software. During the process I started to have some warning of our AT & T account that I approach the limit of our data plan, then in quick succession, only warnings, said I've reached the limit and then passed in the data, limit charges. At the time it was done, I had accumulated more than 2 gigabytes of additional data charges.
Until that point, I was very pleased with the device and confident in the ability to use Wifi and data. Due to this incident, I became very suspicious of the camera and the huge potential for data overcharges. It is extremely disconcerting as it happened while it is directly connected to the internet using my computer at home.
Please note that, in the episode my ISP and the computer is remained connected to the WEB with no sign of connectivity issues.
Someone at - he had a similar experience and understand what went wrong?
Thanks for your support,
Jerry

You have chosen the option of direct download, you have received a message of warning from AT & T about it yet.
