I am using openSUSE 12.2 with two NICs (one wired and one wireless). The wired NIC is connected to a small internal network with no internet access. The wireless NIC is attached to a larger network with internet access. Both cards have static IP addresses on different subnets (192.168.10.x - wired and 192.168.5.x - wireless). Only the wireless network has a DNS Server entry in its configuration.
Accessing resources on the wired network is not a problem. However when I try to access the internet there is no access. When I run an ifconfig -a command I get the following and can see both NICs are running:

When I try to PING google.com I can see that DNS is routing to the wired network instead of the wireless network.

I’m not really sure where to go next. Any help will be greatly appreciated.
