This has to be done on all connections, e.g. Ethernet, Bluetooth and wireless, as follows: Go to Control Panel > All Control Panel Items > Network & Sharing Center > Change adapter settings (in the left pane), right-click a network > Properties > highlight, in turn, each of the TCP/IP settings > Properties > General Tab > Advanced (at the bottom) and click the Automatic Metric box to clear the tick, then enter the value that you want in the Interface Metric field. The system defaults to the lower or lowest number, so, if you set Metric to 5 in the Wired Network connection and to 10 in the Wireless Connection, the system would default to the wired connection.
