Vista shows 2 networks in network & sharing centre - should have 1

Hi

I have a 3 week old Dell XPS 420 desktop 4 gig RAM running Vista Home
Premium. The XPS has an Intel(R) 82566DC 2 gig network connection and as a
backup I had Dell put in a Broadcom wireless adaptor 802.11g. The Broadcom
connection is currently disabled, as a Belkin N1 (model F5D8231-4) wireless
router came with the computer. It is through the Intel Network connection
and Vista that I am having difficulty with the router.

When I connect the DSL modem directly to the computer I have an internet
connection (PPPoE). When I connected the router things got a bit strange.
The router connected to the internet through the modem, the wireless network
worked, the XPS connected to the router (could access the router menu), but
could not access the internet.

In Vista the network and sharing center identified two networks - the home
network (private) and an unidentified network (public). Both are local area
connections. What is weird is that when I connected the computer directly to
the modem, both networks were seen, but I could connect to the internet.
Going into network connections, I would see "local area", "wireless", and
"Bluetooth" connections. If I disabled the unidentified (public) network
under Network and Sharing I was actually disabling the local area network and
no connection was possible. I ran a few Vista diagnostics and it told me to
disable one connection and try again. It didn't work. Then I tried to get
Vista to assign new IP settings - after a few attempts that worked but the
connection wouldn't last after a reboot.

I visited Dell site and downloaded the updated drivers and diagnostic tools
for the Intel network card. Applied those and the connection happens
occasionally. Meaning I either have to re-run the drivers/diagnostics after
every start-up and hope the system resets itself, or there is a connection
(like now) upon boot-up. I did notice that when the IP addresses are valid
and I have a working internet connection through the router, the Network and
Sharing Center only shows one network (home private). It is a local area
connection for local and internet. The unidentified public network is not
there.

Any ideas as to how to make this connection stable/permanent? I am trying
to avoid a c drive wipe and Vista reinstall if at all possible

Thanks

I have a very Simula problem which I posted a new thread before reading this,
I am sure its a Vista problem basically if I switch of my modem network
router the two connections that was showing both disappear, when I switch the
modem back on two networks show up. I have to disable anyone one of them then
they both go the re enable my networks then only one comes back on and all
fine and I am able to connected to the internet

cortez871

are you "SteveOne"? You are replying to a thread where I asked
Steveone to post an ipconfig.

You've posted a configuration showing that you are connected
directly to a cable modem. What brand and model cable modem? Is it
this configuration where you see 2 networks. What brand and model
router?

Start by unbinding IPv6.

Hi Barb

I can run IPconfig/all but am having trouble copying the text out of the
command prompt.

Can you advise what I need to do or should I be transcribing everything?

Hi Barb.

I have Vista Windows version 6.0.6000 showing at the command prompt.

I transcribed the ipconfig /all for both situations - when I have two
networks showing and no wired internet connection through the router and then
when I have only one network showing and the wired connection works. I did
notice that there are some differences in the ipconfig, specifically in the
Ethernet Adapter Local Area Connection and the Tunnel Adaptor Connection 6.
Any ideas on how to fix this and make it a stable connection?
