Dual Network Cards

I'm considering installing a second NIC so that I can be connected to the web and a VPN at the same time. If I were to open a browser, how does the system decide which network to use for the browser's communications?
The difficult we do right away... ...the impossible takes slightly longer.

Change the default gateway on each card. You can give each a separate static IP address as well. Go into the IPV4 properties of each adapter to accomplish this. In the preferences of the VPN client. You should be able to choose which one to use. Or consider using the ROUTE ADD command with the address you to VPN too.
Something worth reading, albeit it's invincible!
