Windows initializes the route metric value for each route from the "speed" of the interface. If there are multiple links and for one we know it's a gigabit ethernet link, and the other is a 54mbit wlan link, then the former would automatically get preference... it's a bit black magic, but kinda cool black magic i think... that said, i am not sure we even have a sane API to determine the speed of links... maybe ethtool reports it at least for wired ethernet? but for wlan?
