Separate Internet connection for each app

Recommended Posts

hi guys, i'm curious whether this can be achieved or if there's any apps/utils that can do this:

i'm on Windows XP SP3 Pro. Have a wired broadband connection (PPPoE) and 3G HSDPA wireless broadband.

Now, the jackpot question is this:

How can i set a specific app to use a specific connection? e.g. MS Outlook using wired broadband. Browser using 3G wireless broadband.

Is such arrangement possible?

thanks!

No, you cannot set this per application.

You would have to have one which is the default for everything and that would be your normal default gateway(which should probably be your broadband card)

Then you need to find the ip address/s that outlook uses and do a route add from the command prompt for that network

route add (mailserver IP) mask (mailserver subnet mask) (Broadband gateway) metric 2

route add 10.0.0.0 mask 255.0.0.0 192.168.0.2 metric 2
