Using NetRouteView

You can select a single route and then delete it (Del key) or modify it (Ctrl+M). Be aware that only routes with 'Static Route' value in the Protocol column, can be deleted or modified. You can also add a new route by using 'New Route' option (Ctrl+N).

Using The 'Switch Metric Values' Option
If you have more than one network adapters with Internet connection, the 'Metric' value is used to determine which Internet connection will be used by default. (The operating system always use the route with lower Metric value)If you want to switch to the other network adapter, simply select both network routes of these adapters, and then use the 'Switch Metric Values' option. After the metric switching, the internet connection of the other network adapter will be used.
