Using wireless connect & wired connect simultaneously 1

[os400]

Here's the situation:
I have a client connected to the internet via wireless to DSL. He also has a wired connection to the internal network. On the internal network he uses 5250 emulation to connect to corporate systems. The corporate network is not connected the internet. With both connections active, here's what happens. If he connects to the corporate network, then he cannot reach the internet. If he connects to the internet, then he cannot connect to the corporate network. He can easliy enable/disable connections, but there must be a better way. Is there a way to direct a particular application to use a specific network connection?

Christmas stars for all workable answers!!!!

And you have tried bridging the two connections?

When you figure this out please let me know, trying to do the same thing and have the same problem. Tried using a proxy for the internet connection and it works but some apps needed dont run with proxy so I really need to get it to work without...

Changing the network metric on the lan card did the trick.
