• Some users have recently had their accounts hijacked. It seems that the now defunct EVGA forums might have compromised your password there and seems many are using the same PW here. We would suggest you UPDATE YOUR PASSWORD and TURN ON 2FA for your account here to further secure it. None of the compromised accounts had 2FA turned on.
    Once you have enabled 2FA, your account will be updated soon to show a badge, letting other members know that you use 2FA to protect your account. This should be beneficial for everyone that uses FSFT.

Is this possible?

Hello, I have what I think is a somewhat unusual dilemma. I play Team Fortress 2 competitively. There is this site, tf2lobby.com, that is used to organize pick up games. You log in on the site, join a lobby, and when it is full, it launches TF2 and connects you to a server. The problem is, TF2lobby.com, for whatever reason, doesn't work on the wired internet in my dorm. It does, however, work on the wireless. But, I don't want to game on the wireless (obviously).

The question is, if I am connected to 2 networks (1 wired and 1 wireless), is it possible to set my browser to default to the wireless, and Team Fortress 2 to default to the wired?

Thanks!
 
AFAIK, you can connect to two at once as long as the IP schemes aren't the same......but I believe internet will all flow through one only....and I don't think there's a way to split internet between both by application.
 
I'd probably complain to the school's SysAdmins:p

You might be able to achieve some kind of effect like this through routing rules on your machine if you always connect to the same IPs. Otherwise it'd be tricky.

Might be worth figuring out why some websites don't work on the wired net. They definitely should.
 
Try putting 174.133.76.250 (the IP address of tf2lobby.com) into your browser and see if that works. I'm curious as to whether this is simply a DNS problem.
