My laptop has builtin wireless and LAN port.
The laptop is connected to a LAN via a d-link router, along with other networked computers... But, the laptop also connected wirelessly my Linksys router.

Both the d-link and linksys router are connected to different ISP connection.

I want my laptop to use the wireless connection to the Linksys for internet access while blocking internet access via the d-link router, but keeping LAN filesharing capabilities with the networked computers.

Basically, the wireless card to provide internet, while the LAN port provides local computer networking. How can i block the laptop from using the LAN internet access, but retaining the local network?

Confusing?
 
Configure your wireless card w/ default gateway, but not for your LAN port.
That way, non-local traffic will go out to Internet via wireless / Linksys.
