Question / Help Network Binding issue

Hello !

I'd like to report something strange that's happening to me on OBS (Studio and Classic).

I'm currently using a dedicated 4G modem to stream on Twitch. To prevent Windows from using my 4G connexion, i've set up a higher metric from this interface. (10 for my Ethernet connexion, and 20 for the 4G one).
On OBS, I've got the right network selected, and when i'm starting the Stream, sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't. I'll explain :
When it works, everything is ok, no drops or everything.
When it doesnt work, I can clearly see that OBS is sending all the datas on my Ethernet connexion, causing me massive drops of course. (But when Im checking what interface is selected on OBS, it is NOT the Ethernet connexion.)

So I would like to know if this issue is related to OBS or is it from Windows or something else I've done wrong ?
By the way, when Im checking logs,

Thank you for your support.

PS: The log file included is an attempt that clearly shows my issue. The first attempt of stream is causing a massive drop, and when I'm monitoring my network, my dedicated modem is not used at all. After a 2nd attempt, no probem. But i didn't change anything between those attempts. And it looks like the interface is the same... :(

No, this is the exact log of my attempt. And yeah, as you can see, the interface used on the log is the same, but on Windows, the "Remote NDIS based Internet Sharing Device #3" is not used at all. Only my classic ethernet connexion. This is my main issue.

Wireless connections not recommended for streaming. OBS Studio uses its own method to sort network adapters (your Windows settings don't take any effect on OBS until you completely disable/disconnect one of the adapters that have internet connection). Your list of adapters in Studio may contain, for example: default (this is recommended as for me setting); your internet connection (IP); local network connection (IP); IPv6 to IPv4 or so (IP). If you have more than one adapter and one connection - that list will grow up.

If you have no connection then that device not listed in OBS Studio.
Maybe you selected wrong adapter?
