Dual NICs: 1 wired, 1 wifi but use wifi for outside internet only

[hrp2171]

Hi,

I would like to setup my Windows 7 Professional desktop with 2 network cards: existing wired card and add a wifi adapter.

I'm familiar with the process of bridging both adapters; however, I'm having trouble 'grokking' what needs to be done so all outside internet traffic only goes through the wireless and all local traffic goes through the wired.

It seems everyone online has a different way of doing this and/or explaining how to get it done.

Looking forward to your input.

Thank you.

Built in Intel gigabit network card

Welcome to the forum. Is simple to get to the internet it needs default gateway in the NIC settings so on network card set a fixed IP leave gateway blank
