[RESOLVED] How to set priority of my NIC over Dial-up?

[Je-Tze]

Hi. I want to have my dialup connected at the same time as my DSL, but i want windows to use the DSL(through my Netgear RT314 router then my NIC) by default and only use the dialup as a sortof backup connection when the DSL loses sync. I'm having a terrible time find info on this, but i figure there must be registry setting somewhere. I'm on WindowsXP SP2. By default, once the dialup is connected Windows only uses that pipe to the internet, and completely ignores the better DSL connection through my NIC. Also supposing there is a way to set my NIC as default even while the Dialup is connected, is windows smart enough to temporarily switch to the diaup when the DSL goes down for a few seconds at a time? It can't use the Connection Status of the NIC to tell it when to switch, because the NIC's connection to the router never has any trouble. The only cue would be the sudden halt in response through the DSL.

I have good DSL service, it has one GLARING issue, which stems partially from me being near the end of the max looplength for ADSL, but probably more from being in a rural neighborhood with lines dating back to the 60's. Both of these make the DSL extremely susceptible to interference. As a result i get random loss of sync which usually last for between 5 and 30 seconds, but a minute or two is not that uncommon. Longer periods are rare but have happenned. Some times it will go for days without dropping, others it's only two or three times a day, but often it will happen many times at random spacings throughout the day. It becomes much more likely/common during primetime (~5pm-10pm). Most DSL companies won't even offer me service. I go through Speakeasy, they are awesome, but the deal is i'm basically on my own as far as support, as Covad has said my lines are unfit. Nevertheless Speakeasy has been awesome at helping me troubleshoot and stuff. I get between 300k and 700k throughput, which is certainly fine enough, when it is up!, but the dropped connections are infuriating, especially during online games.

So, any ideas for me?
Thanks.

PS: i doubt it will help much here, but my IPCONFIG, with the dialup connected, is attached.
