I have a PC with 2 NICs installed and I want to utilize both, in my office table there's a 2 port patch panel.
1 port is for internet, and the other for internal access.
When both my NICs are active, it seems that I cannot access both network simultaneously (internal & internet).
My PC is in the state of confusion as to what traffic goes to a certain NIC only, by that I mean if I search the internet it should use the nic internet port if I access internal network it must use the office NIC port.
Is there a way I can command in windows to do routing of packets?

im using windows 7, the reason behind this, its too troublesome to disconnect a cable and switch it to another port just to change my access to a certain network. the internal network (10.0.0.0/24) and my internet network goes (192.168.X.X/24) these are 2 separate networks, and i just need to make all my web traffics go the (192.168.X.X) gateway – user1933824 – 2013-05-02T03:20:06.167
being 10.0.0.0/24 are there any computers on the internal network on 10.0.1.0 or above? Also is the 192.168.X.X/24 network really /24 or did you mean to type /16? – Scott Chamberlain – 2013-05-02T03:22:25.743
ipconfig shows (10.132.232.115/24) i have no control over this since this is a dhcp-given ip to access the office network only, but we also have a different network to access the internet which is in the (192.168.100.X/24) network. it just so happens that my pc has 2 nics, and just realize the convenience of not having to disconnect 1 port just to access the other. – user1933824 – 2013-05-02T03:29:30.297
Ok, my question is are there any computers on your corperate network outside of the 10.132.232.X range? If the answer to my question is "Yes" then the answer to your question is "Windows does not support that setup, you can't have gateways for two NICs that point to two networks, only two NICs to one network or two NICs to two networks where one does not have a gateway router set." – Scott Chamberlain – 2013-05-02T03:33:43.037
