Windows 10 set the wired /wireless network priority method

As we all know, the network connection has wireless and wired, both have their own advantages, the wired network is relatively stable, and the wireless network is relatively flexible. When there is a wireless network and a wired network connection in the Windows 10 computer, how do we set the priority of the network? Please see below for the specific setting method. Both methods

Windows10 disposed wired /wireless network priority:

a method for adjusting network advanced settings

Windows default network capable of adjusting the priority Location, just in the network and sharing center, the specific steps are as follows:

1. Right click on the taskbar network icon to enter the “Network and Sharing Center”;

2. Click on the left & ldquo; change adapter settings & rdquo ;;

3, press the Alt key to bring up the keyboard menu bar, and then click the & ldquo; Superior & rarr; advanced settings & rdquo ;;

4 in this case the & ldquo; and adapter binding & rdquo; position can be adjusted to the available connection tab (clicking on a connection, by up and down arrows to the right of the adjustment, as shown below)

5, but there are users who reflect that their computer does not have "Adapters and Bindings" tab (as shown below), or some users are reflected in Windows10, the above settings can not be saved (it is said that Microsoft has abolished this setting in Windows10) How to adjust at this time Network priority it? Let's take a look at the second method.

The second method to modify & ldquo; interface metric & rdquo;

This term may make some users feel strange, so-called & ldquo; & rdquo ;, namely hop routing. A route is a hop. The data transmission process needs to go through multiple networks. Each network device point that is passed through (capable of routing) is called a hop, and the address is its IP. The hop count is the accumulator of how many hops have passed, in order to prevent useless packets from escaping on the Internet. An integer value (range 1 to 9999) that specifies the number of hops required for the route. It is used to select the route that best matches the destination address in the forwarding packet among the multiple routes in the routing table. The selected route has the fewest routes. The number of hops. The number of hops reflects the number of hops, the speed of the path, path reliability, path throughput, and management attributes.

Well, talk about how to set the priority modify this value. Simply put, if there are multiple connections in the computer, which connection has a small number of hops, which priority is high. But also do not arbitrarily customize, you have to set according to the basic rules, that is, the actual situation, the general setting method is as follows:

1, enter the network and sharing center & rarr; change the adapter settings;

2, on the right to modify the connection points, select & ldquo; property & rdquo ;;

3, double-click & ldquo; Internet protocol version 4 (TCP /IPv4) & rdquo; (if IPv6 is to select the following the & ldquo; Internet protocol version 6 & rdquo ;, setting methods are the same);

4, click on the bottom right corner of the & ldquo; & rdquo ;, advanced and uncheck & ldquo; IP settings & rdquo; tab below & ldquo; automatic metric & rdquo ;;

5, if this is the high priority connection, put & ldquo; interface metric & rdquo; to 10, if it is connected to a low priority, it is to 20;

6, such a change first, because many users are already successful trial users, especially the first method is invalid. As for why the change 10 (generally used for wired networks) and 20 (generally used for wireless network), you can refer to the following criteria:

Note: But still remind the user, the interface metric best Still use the default "automatic hop" is relatively safe, and after a small test, in Windows 10, many devices using dual NICs have higher priority for the wired network.

The above is the Windows 10 system to modify the priority of the wired /wireless network, if your computer does not set the network priority according to your requirements, then you can modify according to the above method.
