Hi Bruce, you can first try removing the default route created by the DHCP server. In command prompt or CMD type "route del 0.0.0.0 mask 0.0.0.0 <gateway>" and add a static route ex. "route add 10.0.0.0 mask 255.0.0.0 <gateway>" if your using class A network or "route add 172.16.0.0 mask 255.255.0.0 <gateway> if your using class B network and so on. Hope it helps and sorry for bad grammar.

Hi, I tried the way you told. But after starting 2nd connection, all previous traffic were stopped & restarted using 2nd connection.

This means it's not working on my laptop.

I am sitting at my office, where we only have wired Intranet. To get to my corporate Emails i have to be connected to the wired LAN. At the same time i am downloading softwares witch i use a 3G moblie modem for. The problem is that when i connect my 3G modem, outlook tries to reach the Email server through it and fails. I have to disconnect the 3G modem to have access to my emails. Is there a way to force outlook to connect to the server through the wired LAN and not the 3G modem?

Thanks in advance!

Bruce

Assuming that the expensive connection connects to only a handful of services, you could just put on a static persistant route for the specific IP addresses, pointing any traffic going to said IP's to the inside interface of the 'expensive' ADSL router. Then have the Default Gateway pointing toward the cheap broadband router, catching anything you didnt specify elsewhere.

I imagine it's also possible to route specific traffic on a port basis to a specific IP address - IE say the 'critical' apps use ports 5,6,88,666 you could route these to the other router.
