    Hello!

    I use two simultaneous connections of INTERNET; one by modem ADSL and
    one by modem CDMA using a serial port COM1.

    I need to find a script (or either solution) to make a basculement between
    the two connections.

    Besides, for do that I need to define the adsl connection as prior because
    Windows xp took automatically the CDMA connection as prior. I tried this in
    advanced settings of the network connections in the control panel, but it
    didn't work.

    Best regards !

    :)

    basculement is French - the translation, according to Google, is toggling, so .....
    would become ....

    I need to find a script (or either solution) to toggle between
    the two connections.

    Afraid that is as far as my input goes - this is not my area of expertise :)

    And for a single computer.

    Did you set the interface metric number in advance settings?
    For each network connection – Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) – properties- advanced- uncheck Automatic metric – and enter a number for the Interface metric.

    Lower the number greater the priority.

    For example my wired connection has an interface number of 20.
    If I plug in my USB wireless adapter that connection has a value of 10 and computer will automatically switch over to it.

    Unplug it and switches back to wired connection.
