You're dealing with a common setup issue. Yes, you can try USB tethering from your phone to get a more stable connection for gaming. For Discord voice chat, you can use a wired Ethernet connection or a USB adapter to ensure reliable internet. This way, both your game and Discord will have better performance without relying on your limited data plan.

The Windows firewall needs to restrict specific apps from using a particular network adapter. It's located in the settings, though it might seem complex at first.

I've searched online yesterday but didn't find much helpful. Today I tried a different approach and discovered a third-party tool called ForceBindIP by Richard Stanway that addressed my issues. It's a command-line app, though several GUIs exist. I understand blocking the firewall is the optimal solution and I'll review the settings again. Perhaps I overlooked something earlier. Appreciate your response.
