Windows 10 Two Wifi Adapters. Can I force a specific adapter to connect AUTOMATICALLY to a specified Access Point
Solution 1:
My aim: WiFi card 1 (Internal) should connect automatically to Internet Router WiFI adapter 2 (USB) should connect automatically to printers LAN when inserted.
If you look in the advanced properties of TCP/IP, the metric chooses the active adapter and uses that to attach the adapter to TCP/IP.
So therefore, there is not any native way to have a USB card (I have a USB Internet stick) associate with a different app than the main connection.
It is often necessary to disconnect from one Adapter (say LAN) and connect to USB source. I have to do this.
That is really under the control of Windows and the Metric / connection setup. The user would have to manage this manually.
In my own work, I keep Printers on the main LAN for simple and easy access.
