Yes, you can route your internet traffic through a specific network adapter so that your games run over another connection. This involves configuring your router or modem settings to prioritize or redirect game traffic accordingly.

Consider testing the IP route commands... once you share your public IPs, you can redirect various segments to distinct gateways...

Your router with PBR support, such as Ubiquiti, allows you to assign unique destinations for each port, like 80 or 443. It’s not clear which apps use this feature on Windows, and the older proxy firewall you mentioned is no longer available.

There’s a practical scenario for this. You’re managing separate types of traffic—gaming and web browsing—and you’re routing them through different adapters. Even though the traffic loops back to the same router, it helps isolate the workload. A useful example is connecting a NAS via one adapter and your PC via another, especially when transferring large files. This way, big transfers bypass the router entirely, reducing load on it and improving performance.

The experience involves high latency gaming over a costly metered link, paired with streaming and Windows on an unlimited plan.
