windows 7 - Can't use Wifi when Ethernet is Active

I'm not able to use Ethernet and Wifi Simultaneously on Windows 7.


I've read that it is supposed to be default in Win7, but when I connect the Ethernet, I can't connect to WiFi. A pop-up comes up showing that I'm already connected to Ethernet, like it is saying, "Hey, why do you want to connect to Wifi when you've got a perfectly good Ethernet connection right here?!".


I've tried enabling via the command prompt and I get the error "WLAN auto configuration is disabled on adapter", though when I do ipconfig /all, it states that WLAN Auto Config is actually enabled.


I've already tried the automatic metric technique, putting the Wifi as 1 and the Ethernet as 2, but it hasn't made any impact.


My goal is to have the Wifi ForceBind to a single app, and run the rest of my internet off the ethernet.


Any ideas?
