I have a laptop which runs windows vista and The laptop can either connect to my network using a standard utp cable or using the wifi connection.

Currently it is using the wifi connection automatically if available.I want to change the priority of my network adapters.

Location independent workers routinely connect via WiFi or 3G when roaming around the country, however when you come into the office you won’t necessarily be connected by the fastest means possible.
