I have a bunch of routes to my LAN line that won't resolve through my WiFi (which is set as 1st order).
sudo route add 10.999.999.999 10.888.888.888
I have a lot more but that's just a sample. This works great but sometimes I need access to another Network asset which means I have to go add it to the list again.
Can I make it so I route any IP address starting with 10 gets rerouted through the LAN router?
Something like this:
sudo route add 10.* 10.888.888.888
THIS DOES NOT WORK
My Setup:
I have two internet connections.
- WiFi – no firewalls – no access to network assets
- LAN – firewalls – access to network assets
I set WiFi first in my order of precedence and I force certain domains through the LAN connection using my host file to resolve the IP addresses and a routes table to direct those IPs through my LAN router.
Basically I want my cake and eat it too.
Here is what I ended up with:
#! /bin/bash
sudo route -n flush
sudo route add -net 10 10.255.255.255
networksetup -setairportpower en0 off
sleep 2
networksetup -setairportpower en0 on
This flushes the route table, routes any traffic starting with the ip address 10.
to my LAN connection's router, then restarts the wifi router (en0
).

The correct form to add a net route is
Obviously you have to replace
$GW
with the ip address of your gateway.
