Unidentified Network Using Hardwired Ethernet Cable
Hello,
I have looked on this forum and not found a solution to my problem.
I have a hardwired ethernet cable to my modem but I cannot connect to the web due to an unidentified network.
When I run IPCONFIG I get the following:
Ethernet Adaptor Local Area Connection:
Connection-Specific DNS Suffix :
Link Local IPv6 Address: fe80::2c2b:8e00:fa8c:b90e%8
Autoconfiguration IPv4 Address: 169.254.185.14
Subnet Mask: 255.255.0.0
Default Gateway:
I have tried the following here:
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/928233/en-gb
This is a solution to set the DHCP Bradcast Flag to 1.
I should be able to see the Ethernet Adaptor details here:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\Tcpip\Parameters\Interfaces\{GUID}
but nowhere do I see them to reset the DHCP Broadcast Flag. In fact I only have four GUID's and I have reset the two DHCP Broadcast Flags that I can reset to 1. But this does not work.
I really do not know what to try next.
Can anyone help with this problem?
