Control traffic between two network connections on Windows 10

Asked By Joseph H Higuchi 70 points N/A Posted on - 02/03/2015

My computer is connected to both WiFi and Ethernet. I want to reserve the WiFi network to handle traffic from my chrome browser only. Since the Ethernet has high speeds, I want it to handle the rest of the traffic. How can I fix this issue on the windows 10 operating system?

Control traffic between two network connections on Windows 10

Happy to support you!

For this task, it is necessary to change the priority settings of the network adapters.

• Go to network & sharing Centre > change adapter settings > advanced settings > (manage the devices in the way needed) > ok

Also, through the automatic metric feature, it is possible to automatically prioritize traffic on the adapter with the highest throughput, so that you can reserve WiFi for Chrome usage & set the default route to Ethernet.
