If you have the correct drivers for this, it should do it automatically.  Which dock are you using?

WD 15, Laptop and Docking station are fully updated, i have even tried Dell recommended

It will sense a connection but not auto switch

Please go to and right click your wired and wireless adapters one at a time to change the properties. Select IPv4, click then click . For each one, clear the "Automatic metric" check box and assign the metric value manually. Setting your wired adapter’s metric value lower than wireless adapter one, such as “1” for wired adapter and “2” for wired adapter.

If the issue persists, please go to , hold down 'alt' to bring up the "File" menu, select "Advanced", select Advanced Settings" from the dropdown menu, adjust the priority of your wired adapter higher than your wireless adapter in the "Advanced Settings" window under the "Adapters and Bindings" tab
