Rate Topic Display Mode Topic Options Author Message kchloevt Posted 3/23/2008 3:28:38 PM I have a wired router connected to a combination wired/wireless switch (both are LinkSys and pretty old). The PC in question has a wired connection to the switch. In the Network and Sharing Center, Vista sees two Networks: Network (private) and Unidentified Network (public), but both have the same IP information. Both also say local and internet access, but I cannot connect to the Internet. Disabling one of the active connections (one of the fixes suggested by Windows) causes all network connections to be disabled. I have tried resetting the router and switch, renewing the DHCP lease and resetting the network adapter to no avail. The most frustrating aspect of this problem is that it is intermittent. Sometimes, without apparent reason, the computer will "just work." There is another Vista PC also with a wired connection to the switch that has no trouble connecting to the internet and correctly sees only one network. Please give me some suggestions on what could be causing this problem. Thank you!

In some cases, Microsoft employees may stumble with a posting like this and forward to the appropriate team. But that does not happen often since there are so many posting in the Internet. In this case, you are in luck so ? I will contact the appropriate team and make them aware of the issue. This does not mean that a hotfix will be available right away since this will take time to replicate the problem and analyze the cause. But we will do our best to investigate the issues.

See other thread. 'Ethernet Multiple Networks detected, Local access only, Only one exists - Vista Forums' (http://www.vistax64.com/showthread.php?p=759855post759855) Although this can be caused by some other issues like the NIC power management, or IPV6. -- ghayman Post #143719 « Prev Topic | Next Topic » 11 posts, Page 1 of 2 12»» Reading This Topic Active Users: 0 (0 guests, 0 members, 0 anonymous members) No members currently viewing this topic.
