SMTP Email with both wired and wireless connections

[technics]

We have a machine that needs to send an email via the customer's internal wired connection. At the same time, we need a wireless connection to the internet so we can remote access the machine using team viewer. We have been unable to establish a connection to the SMTP and I suspect it is because it is using the wireless connection. I know there is a method to force windows to use one of the connections first but that would then apply to both Labview and team viewer. Can someone help? Thanks in Advance.

Look up "route add"

Thanks. I'm not sure I can get a specific enough destination and am leery about messing something up with route add.

Are you using both the wired and wireless connections at the same time?

Honestly in should "just work" as I do something similar using LXI. I have several instruments on Ethernet and a WiFi connection to the Internet.

I didn't have to set up any special routing, but you may have to.

Can you ping the SMPT server?

If it returns "Host Not Reachable" then you may have to setup some special routing.

the Route command can both add and remove "routes" so if it doesn't work just delete it.

Also unless you specifically set it to be "persistent" the new routes will not be there after you reboot.

Thanks for your help. We will need to use both connections at the same time. And, No I cannot ping the smtp server. That is why I suspect it is going through the wireless connection.
