Hello, I've just begun streaming and due to poor internet, I connect my phone via 4G. Both my regular connection and 4G are set up on my PC, and in Obs I switch to 4G so I can stream. Occasionally when playing Fortnite, my ping is very high and it seems like my 4G takes over during matches, using it for gameplay. How can I configure it so that only 4G is used for streaming and everything else uses my normal connection?

I handle it from the router side or with two adapters on the PC side. OBS can be configured for specific IP addresses (or adapter types), but most of the remaining tasks depend on the driver for each adapter, including certain processes or software. Shifting this to Networking would likely benefit from local expertise.
