it's not good practice to have more than one gateway entry.<br />
If both NICs are using &quot;Get Address Automatically&quot; then they likely each have a different gateway (path to the internet).<br />
<br />
Since you now know the control ip address range for the switch, you migh assign the laptop Ethernet a static address (i.e. manually) with NO gateway address entered, in the range of the switch IP address. This should avoid confusion / problems.

Hi,<br />
<br />
I have a laptop which connected to the Internet through Wifi and it has been assigned an ip address of 10.10.10.10/24.<br />
<br />
Now i have to configure a new switch, which can be configured only via browser. When I connect the LAN cable from the switch to my Laptop's LAN port it assigns my laptop an ip address 192.168.0.2/24.<br />
<br />
My question here is that now my laptop has two different IP addresses, now will I be able to access the internet as well as the Switch from the same laptop or will there be some conflicts. <br />
<br />
The scenario image is below.<br />

Can I access devices on different subnets from my laptop?

The Windows operating systems have distinct methodologies for designing and implementing networks, and have specific systems to accomplish various networking processes, such as Exchange for email, Sharepoint for shared files and programs, and IIS for delivery of web pages. Microsoft also produces server technologies for networked database use, security and virtualization.

Windows Networking

Networking software modules are interfaced with a framework implemented on the machine's operating system that implements the networking functionality of the operating system. The best known frameworks are the TCP/IP model and the OSI model. Systems typically do not use a single protocol to handle a transmission. Instead they use a set of cooperating protocols, sometimes called a protocol family or protocol suite.[9] Some of the best known protocol suites include: IPX/SPX, X.25, AX.25, AppleTalk and TCP/IP. Other protocols indirectly related to networking include the hypertext transfer protocol (HTTP) and its related technologies, Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP), Domain Name Server (DNS) and other Internet protocols.

Networking Protocols

Wireless networking is anything related to the transfer of data between two (or more) devices without the use of a physical connection, ranging from getting advice on a new Bluetooth headset to configuring sophisticated enterprise level networks.
