Description of the Wireless LAN Route Table Metric Behavior 
Microsoft Knowledge Base Article: 315088 - After you install a wireless network adapter in a computer that already has a physical local area network (LAN) connection, the default gateway route for the wireless LAN (if the system is configured to have one) may have a higher metric than the physical LAN default gateway. For example, the physical LAN default gateway metric may be 20, but the wireless LAN default gateway may be 30.
