Hello, First time poster.

I have multiple access points in my house for wireless that I use for work (a long complicated scenario where I have to disconnect and reconnect to renew my access to my work). Anyway, I have found a solution to that, I got multiple IP addresses from my ISP which I use to connect back and forth to not stop what I am doing on my project. The thing is, It is ideal for me to used input director to control all my laptops with 1 keyboard and mouse. The thing I am looking for is to have these laptops connected to my different ISP wirelessly which then makes Input director useless since they are not on the same network. Is it possible to Have these laptops connect to the internet wirelessly, but then connect the computers locally with an ethernet hub for the use of Input Director?

Thank You.

Brandon,

It is possible - in fact I do the same thing.

You can chose the preferred network in input director, choose the hard wired adapter (you can type start > view network connections to see which one is the hard wired one)

If you want to force a specific application to use a specific IP use force bind IP (google it, it's the first link). I use force bind IP to force Google Chrome to use my wifi 4 G hot spot while i relegate my other applications (such as input director) to the local network. 

Good luck,

Greg
