I know ... this is the opposite of most posts.
![]() Vista machine is currently networking both Local and Internet on same NIC. I want to (temporarily) disable internet but still be able to do local networking, and then to be able to turn internet back on later. How? -- Tim Rude (remove NOSPAM. for correct email address) |

That will prevent the data from going out. -- Tim Rude (remove NOSPAM. for correct email address) |

Hi
If you use a Router check its menus and see if there is a page with easy check/uncheck to disable the WAN/Internet traffic. If there is such a page, send a Short cut of this page to the Desktop, and then when needed get with double click to that page and do what needs to be done.

Unplug the WAN cable from the router.
