Hi, To troubleshoot the issue, please try the following steps. 1. Upgrade the NIC driver to the latest one and temporarily disable firewall. 2. Bypass the router and connect to the DSL Modem directly via wired cable. Does the machine connect to Internet successfully? 3. Manually assign a static IP address and DNS address on the machine for a test. 4. Modify relevant Group Policy. a. Click Start menu and type “gpedit.msc” in the Search box. Right click it and click “Run as administrator” option. d. Open Computer Configuration -->Windows Settings -->Security Settings -->Network List Manager Policies c. On the right panel, please double click “Unidentified networks” d. Then you can select the option to consider the Unidentified networks as private and if user can change the location. Thanks, Novak

Dear Sheetaljain222, I recently upgraded to Win 7 and started getting internet drop outs and then the unidentified network dispalyed. I finally sorted it out after much reading of forums and head scratching. This may not work for everybody but I found that when I was connecting to my Netgear DG834G router via my powerline network adaptors the problem would arise, connecting via wirless was OK though. My fix was to switch off IPV 6 in may adaptor conntion properties, real easy. I have since upgraded my router to a Netgear DGN3500 and through the powerline adaptors all is fine. When connected directly to the old router all was OK too, I can only assume that it is a combination of hardware that causes some not fully compliant IPV6 hardware to fall over. Anyway its a quick one to try so good. Richard
