Assigning network adapters
I'd like to assign my Outlook program and printers to use a wired 10/100
network adapter and access the internet thru my wireless adapter. Each one is
connected to a different provider. Is this possible?

I'm sorry, but isn't possible to assign a specific network adapter to
a program or to a printer.

If you know the IP addresses of your provider's E-mail servers, you
can create static routes to assign a specific network adapter to those
addresses.

Hi
Expanding on Steve's info.
You can first set the adapters metrics to prefer the Wireless.
By doing so your surfing would go through the Wireless.

If you know your email provider IP, and your printer is a network printer
with his own IP, you can use them to Route the wired adapter.
May be this can Help,
