    Dear all,

    I hope that you are all well. We have a wireguard service running for the VPN solution, and currently we are testing a scenario with the Windows metrics. We are allocating the network adapter metrics as follows:

    VPN (Wireguard): 10

    Ethernet adapters: 20

    Wifi Adapters: 100

    Bluetooth: 150

    While configuring this, we were testing if this really works to prefer wired over wifi or not. While having the wireguard service running and connected to a wifi connection. We connected a LAN cable to the device, but the device's connection traffic did not switch from WiFi to wired. We tested this with the service of wireguard down, and it switched automatically.

    We wish that it would work when connected to wifi; it switches to wired when the wireguard service is running.

    Do you have any suggestions for this? Maybe you have encountered this.

    Thanks and regards,

    Tristan
