IMac (El-Capitan) – Trying to make Wi-Fi as a priority over Ethernet

imacmacosNetworkwifi

I am trying to prioritise Wi-Fi over Ethernet cable and have changes settings to Wi-Fi under service order but when I do the speed test on Chrome the internet is used from the cable which is only 3 Mbps but on my wifi I get 20 Mbps. Both connections are on a different network.

Is there any way where I can use the internet service from Wi-Fi connection and local file transfer using from the Ethernet cable?
