Unable to interop two different connections to two different browsers on Vista.

I have two connections, one broadband connection and one wireless connection.

And I have two browsers, IE9 and Firefox 4.

I do completely different jobs on both of these explorers, former for school homeworks/projects, and the latter for personal use. Reason is that our school network is not compatible with Firefox 4. Truly don't know why.

And I can't make both of these browsers to automatically switch/bind connections to either wired or wireless connections on a Windows Vista laptop.

I want IE9 to be binded to the wireless, and Firefox to be binded to my home broadband connection. And if either one fails, switch to the other connection.

However, only Firefox is able to do this. For IE9, I have to delete the broadband connection in order for it to detect and use the wireless connection when that connection is the only one my laptop is connected to. IE9 kept trying to connect to the broadband connection, or it kept "working Offline". It seems that it is not able to detect any other connections other than the broadband connection.

How can I fix this? Thanks in advance.
