Following is the script: (Save with a .vbs extension), I've marked in red the places u need to change so your script will fit your needs.
The 0.8 number means that at 0.8% network utilization, the script will change the adapter's metric and thus lower its priority.
If you just want to change the metric of your network interface from command line,
use this command : (run CMD as admin)
netsh interface ipv4 set interface "wired" metric=5
