Wired for internet and wireless for vpn at same time win7
Last response: in Networking
Win 7 Home Premium. My vpn connection to work disconnects my wired internet connection. Is there a way around that? If not, can I force the vpn to connect wirelessly while staying wired to my home network and internet? Is it even possible to have both connections active at the same time? Vista laptop uses only wireless and has no problem staying conected while using vpn.

Make sure your home network and the remote network are using different subnets. IOW, if you're using 192.168.1.x (very common) and the remote network is also using 192.168.1.x, you're going to have problems. That's one of the gotchas of using a VPN and why it's best to use an uncommon subnet for your own network (e.g. 192.168.66.x) if you're going to be using VPNs regularly.
Thanks for the quick response. How do I change or assign a subnet?
