Re: Multiple network cards in WM05



I've never seen it physically documented, but there are "cost" information
values passed from the driver back to NDIS and it tries to use the
lowest-cost connection. In this case, I think that cost basically comes
down to performance. 100BaseT Ethernet wins over 802.11b which wins over
dial-up. There has been some minor amount of traffic on the subject of
selecting routes for traffic in the Platform Builder newsgroup in the past.
You might use GoogleGroups and search all of microsoft.public.windowsce.*
for "route cost" or something like that...
