Different SSID's.

What do you mean the one that matches the SSID?

Maybe I didn't ask my question correctly or perhaps I don't understand your
answer...

If I type in www.gotothiswebpage.com in my browser...I'm wondering how
Windows/networking knows which, or how it chooses which, connection (and
therefore which ISP) it will use since both are active on my PC and both are
pointing to 2 different ISPs and 2 different wireless routers.

Thanks!

Do they have the same or different SSID's? If they are the same (and
security is set the same on both), then it should use whichever one had
the better wireless signal. If they are different, then it should pick
the one that matches the SSID. If you are doing this to measure
connection speed a wired connection might be better because it wouldn't be
subject to environmental factors.
