How do I get the browser tab (chrome) to use a wireless network and the other to use an Ethernet cable?

I know my question is a bit uncomfortable, but here is my situation:

I have two networks, one of which is available to me wirelessly, and the other is accessible to me via an Ethernet cable.

If my laptop is connected to both networks, can I connect to the WWW website via a wireless network and the EE website via Ethernet on two tabs in one browser (Chrome)?

Note. Suppose both websites provide streaming video.

Note. Suppose the WW website is blocked through an Ethernet network, and the EE website is blocked through a wireless network.

My trials:

  • I tried to open the WWW website while the laptop is only connected to the wireless network, and then plug in the Ethernet cable and open the EE website. Result: The WWW website closes the connection over the wireless network and tries to connect via Ethernet, so it stops streaming.

  • I tried to open the EE website while the laptop is only connected to Ethernet, and then connect to the wireless network and open the WW website. Result: The EE website supports streaming, and WW never loads.

I use Windows XP, the latest google chrome. Any ideas?

If you can reconfigure the access point, you can do this:

1) configure the Wifi access point as a router (so that it has a different IP address on its Ethernet and on its Wifi interfaces

2) configure the IP address of the Wi-Fi card on your PC to be on the IP network of the router (Wifi side)

3) configure a static route on the PC so that access to WW is passed through a router and the default route (used for EE) is through Ethernet.
