Invoke-WebRequest call if NIC 1 is disabled

Question

I have a Windows PC with three network interfaces. One of them is a UMTS modem, and the other two are local area networks, and one network has an Internet connection.

Invoke-WebRequest http://192.168.1.118/File1.xml

So far, I have an Internet connection, either through UMTS or through a second network, Invoke-WebRequest is working. But if I only have a connection to one local network, I get a timeout, although the ping address still works.

Where could the problem be? Or can you define a network interface where a web request should try to retrieve data?

Do you have a proxy server configured in this field?

[System.Net.WebRequest]::GetSystemWebproxy()
