I have a network setup as in the following diagram:

The ISP1 works fine. However, I want to connect to the internet using ISP2 and my new wireless router (with 4 port hub). If I disconnect the network cable plugged into PC1 on the ISP1 network, it finds the wireless network and I then start surfing with ISP2. However, I want the default to be ISP2, using only the nic card to connect to the other PC's on the network rather than using it for the internet connection.
I have Win XP Pro. PC1 has a USB wireless nic to connect to the wireless router.
How can I do this? Should I instead plug the wireless router into the switch so that I don't actually use the wireless part, but instead use just the one nic from PC1 to find it on the network via the switch? If so, what do I need to alter? Is it the gateway and DNS settings on PC1?
Thanks!
Jon
