I'm constantly switching between eth0 and wlan0 interface on my archlinux because I often change OpenWrt fw images on my second router (which isn't connected anywhere).
So I have problem with my routes when I'm connected to my wlan and want to connect with Ethernet to my router.
Both routers are on 192.168.1.1/24 and after connecting to my Ethernet profile eth0 route becomes default one (which is ok for the time), because of smaller metric I guess.
So I'm interested, how can I change routes metric so my applications can be connected to the internet (through out wlan)?
Maybe there is solution not to use Default Gateway on Ethernet profile, however I still want to know how to change metric. Or default route if there are more then one.
