Custom network card designed for particular use cases.
Hi, I'm using a dual network setup—one with 4G+ (40MB) on the motherboard Ethernet and another with slow ADSL (5MB) via USB. The ADSL is connected to the Ethernet, while the 4G+ goes to USB. I need to switch between them depending on what I'm doing, but I want to avoid forcing bindings. Can I make an app or game use a dedicated network card without using forcebindIP? Also, the control panel's metrics interface is too cluttered for Windows 11; it just accepts whatever the system chooses. Thanks for understanding, and sorry for the English!
Utilize custom routing rules for precise control. Similar patterns can be applied like this: route -p add <server-1-ip-range> MASK <…> <router-1-ip> and route -p add <server-2-ip-range> MASK <…> <router-2-ip>. Setting up these rules requires identifying the IPs your software uses, then directing traffic through the intended gateways.
It's quite challenging to track all the IP addresses used by games like CS:GO or Valorant. Mapping them with rules would be possible but would take a lot of time. Playing on a new server could lead to incorrect routing. There might be tools that show IP usage from other apps and let you set guidelines, though. Thanks for your response.
Windows Resource Monitor can display the IP addresses a program is using. You likely won’t find any tool that automatically generates these rules. Setting this up will probably require some effort. It might help to establish a default route that prioritizes faster connections initially, then adjust traffic on slower links as needed.
From the resource monitor you can see all connections and programs along with their IP addresses, but when checking the routing table in CMD you don’t always see the same IPs. To identify which program corresponds to a specific connection, you need to figure out how to recognize it and route traffic through a dedicated link. You’re developing a C# form that interacts with CMD and PowerShell to modify routes and display network details, latency, and connections clearly.
