Unidentified Network appears every Windows 7 reboot and stops NW access

I have an HP Pavillion PC which had Windows Vista Home Premium with all patches up to date. I upgraded to Windows 7 last weekend and ever since every time I reboot NW access fails. In Network Sharing there are 2 networks "Network 2" and "Unidentified Network". I have to disable the NW Adapter and enable each time to get rid of the "Unidentified Network" and recover NW access.
How can I fix this?

Hi,
You can also try the following steps to troubleshoot the issue.
1. Bypass the router and connect to cable modem directly for a test. Do you need disable Local Area Connection now? If so, please let me know. Otherwise, please upgrade the router firmware and then connect to router again.
2. Temporarily turn off firewall on the machine and router (If it has).
3. Upgrade the NIC driver.
4. Restart the computer to Safe Mode with Networking to check the result.
5. Configure the connection to obtain an IP address automatically
=======================================
a. Click "Start", input "NCPA.CPL" (without quotation marks) to Start Search bar and press "Enter".
b. Right-click the network connection and click "Properties".
If you are prompted for an administrator password or confirmation, type the password or provide confirmation.
c. Click to highlight "Internet Protocol Version 6 (TCP/IPv6)" and click "Properties".
d. Check "Obtain an IP address automatically" and "Obtain DNS server address automatically".
e. Click "OK".
f. Click to highlight "Internet Protocol Version 4 (TCP/IPv4)" and click "Properties".
g. Check "Obtain an IP address automatically" and "Obtain DNS server address automatically".
h. Click "OK".
i. Reboot the computer.
What's the result now?
Thanks,
Novak

  • Unidentified Network appears Windows 7 pro reboot and stops NW access

    I have a Dell T3500 workstation  which had Windows 7pro problem is whenever  I reboot NW access fails. In Network Sharing there are 2 networks "Local area " and "public Network". I have to disable the NW Adapter and enable
    each time to get rid of the "public  Network" and recover NW access.
    How can I fix this?

    Hi viren84,
    Please first take a try with the network troubleshooter:
    Using the Network troubleshooter in Windows 7
    For more Internet connection troubleshooting, see:
    Wired and wireless network problems
    Regarding Unidentified Network, that because the network are indetified as public, which is not safe enough:
    More on:
    Network Location Awareness (NLA) and how it relates to Windows Firewall Profiles.
    You may consider change it to work profile:
    Change ‘Unidentified network’ from Public to Work in Windows 7

  • I upgraded my Window 8.1 and could not access to iTunes Store. How can I fix it?

    I upgraded my Window 8.1 and could not access to iTunes Store. How can I fix it?

    I have the same problem.  ITunes boots up just fine, I can access all my stuff, but when I click on the ITunes store, all my computer says it that iTunes has stopped working- and that Windows will notify me if a solution is available.  I have uninstalled and reinstalled, and also run computer diagnostics and compatibility tests between my computer and iTunes.  It give me no error code at all.
    I've tried to get into the store through menu options as well- like trying to access my account- but anything that has to do with accessing the store shuts the whole program down.

  • ITunes settings lost on every Windows 8 reboot

    I have a Windows 8 laptop and I am using iTunes 64bit version. This problem occured in the previous version and the newly released 11.0.5.5. Every day I properly close all open programs and shutdown. When I reboot the next day, I open iTunes to annoyingly find that the settings I change are reset and the "Welcome to iTunes" screen comes up. I even tried uninstalling and reinstalling to no avail. Why is this happening and how do I stop it?

    McAfee AntiVirus by any chance? See the thread Why does iTunes delete my itunesprefs.xml?

  • A script appears but with multiple continues and stop does neither : ///C:/Program%20Files/Mozilla%20Firefox/components/nsExtensionManager.js:2309

    ///C:/Program%20Files/Mozilla%20Firefox/components/nsExtensionManager.js:2309 clicking the continue and stop options results in the warning continuing. I am unable to close Firefox and cannot delete the program and reinstall. I am using IE to reach this site. Is there another way to uninstall Firefox and reinstall or to get the script to function. Thank you for your help. TG

    This is typically caused by a problem with the Personas Plus 1.6 add-on and it conflicting with the Google toolbar.
    Try disabling the Personas Plus add-on. To do this open the add-ons manager by selecting the Tools menu, then Add-ons. In the list of installed extensions click on Personas Plus, then click on either disable or uninstall.
    If you can not access the add-ons manager, follow the instructions in the [[safe mode]] article to start Firefox in safe mode. You should then be able to disable or uninstall Personas Plus. You can find more information on this procedure in the [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]] article.

  • FF 5 running on windows 7 has suddenly stopped allowing access to comcast mail, but this is not a problem under Snow Leopard

    I am running the latest version of firefox on a windows 7 laptop and Mac desktop. The windows version was allowing access to comcast email until it suddenly stopped. It won't let me open any email on the summary page or view the entire inbox. Opening firefox in safe mode does not eliminate the problem. I have no problem accessing comcast mail on the MAC or with Chrome, Safari or IE on the laptop.

    Hi Steve1904,
    So you have use the backup and Restore to restore your files from Windows XP to Windows 7 directly?
    This should be considered not work.
    If you would like to transfer files between Windows XP and Windows 7, you need another tool called Windows Easy Transfer.
    See the article below if you would like to upgrade from Windows XP to Windows 7:
    Upgrading from Windows XP to Windows 7
    If possible, follow the steps there, then things should be OK.

  • Network issues with Windows Server 2008 and MacOS

    Hello there,
    I believe it is a long shot, but i am running out of options. I got a video streaming server software running on my windows server 2008. It has a client that runs on MacOS and Windows. The windows client works just fine, but the macos client cannot stream
    a few videos.
    I've tried installing the streaming server on windows 7 and my mac client worked just fine, so I believe that win server 2008 got some sort of configuration that is blocking the correct communication between software. 
    Since the software devs could not tell me what's wrong or how to fix it, I thought I might get some help here (kinda of a last hope thing). I have tried installing codecs, enabling desktop experience and nothing worked.
    So, here is my question: Is there anything that windows server has that windows 7 do not that might be causing this scenerio?
    Thanks,
    Lucas

    Hi,
    Have you disabled the firewall on the windows server? The firewall may block the traffic if it isn’t configured properly.
    If it still doesn’t work after disabling the firewall, please install the Network Monitor on the windows server and client. Then capture the traffic of the video when the server and windows7 runs your software.
    Try to compare the traffic of windows server and windows7. Find out the difference between them.
    To download Network Monitor, click the link below,
    Microsoft Network Monitor 3.4
    http://www.microsoft.com/en-hk/download/details.aspx?id=4865
    The following article is about how to use the Network Monitor,

  • The wireless network appears to have been compromised and will be disabled

    I have been getting this message from time to time since I purchased my Airport about a month ago, I think in total I have received it 3-4 times. The reason it is interesting is because the behavior is similar to some other posts about dropped connections.
    They symptoms are I will be surfing along and suddenly I get no data at all, it just stops dead. If I have an active application that is trying to pull live data like PC Anywhere I will tend to get the above message. If I don't then no message but I have to turn off my Airport NIC in my laptop and turn it back to reconnect.
    I have found that by going into my Airport Utility and under Wireless Options changing the WPA Group Key Timeout to a longer period the problem has been mitigated. It is still a problem overall but at least the chance is only every 8 hours instead of every 1-2 hours.
    To improve security WPA changes encryption keys from time to time and my theory is that either the Airport base station or the Airport NIC card have problems with this procedure.
    One thought is that the Airport NIC misses the change and thus is still trying to send data using the old key. I don't know how this could happen, maybe it is going to sleep for a short period?? This would go along with the disconnect and reconnect working though.
    Another thought is that whatever method is being used to detect a security compromise during the exchange of new encryption keys in the WPA standard is way too sensitive and is thus deciding to lock all users out for the mandatory minute. This would explain why people seem to get it with D-link routers etc. Maybe after the minute things just don't negotiate properly, maybe this was by design for security?
    Has anyone played with the different encryption schemes? I am currently using WPA/WPA2 Personal. I am guessing that WEP won't have this issue because it doesn't use rolling keys. I wouldn't use WEP though because it can be cracked in ~1 minute. I know users have reported that no security works fine but I can't use this as I don't live on a 100 acre farm. Is WPA2 any better?

    I also switched to 5GHz N only mode at the same time. I see some other posts that indicate this helps.
    Maybe other 2.4 GHz traffic is being mis-read as a hack attempt and the wireless is shutting down??
    This is still better than the Netgear I had, when it stopped traffic both the wired and wireless were dead and there were no errors. I couldn't even access the config page.

  • DPM 2012 R2, Windows 2012 R2, and "stop" VM during backup

    I did upgrade
    DPM 2012 SP1 to 2012
    R2.
    DMP backup the server with Hyper-V
    machines, windows / linux.
    The previous version of Windows, as
    did backup via partition shapshot
    not stop its operation.
    Current unfortunately it does!
    During backup closes all connections
    to the virtual machine, start the
    copy and return connections.
    Hyper-V also shows the
    beginning of a new machine to count
    on time as if they held the
    restart (even though it was not).
    As every change / off?
    Going back to the previous version?
    Backup Group I created again
    - does not help.

    "We are looking for what is
    the procedure for checking why
    the DPM wants
    to do only
    offline backup"
    Yes that is why I asked what do you see in your "Windows Server Backup" from the Hyper-V host.  Did
    you do an update at the Hyper-V Hosts? Could you update the Hyper-V integration tools in your Virtual Machine? 
    What guest system is used in your windows virtual machine? If there a Windows Server 2008 R2 (with installed SP1) or a windows server 2012 you should try to update the integration tools at this machine first. When updated is done, try to backup online again.

  • Windows service start and stop automatically

    i'm trying to start windows service, which i installed via running beasvc with parameters. everything used to work fine, but yesterday somthing broke up: i press the start button in the control panel, service tries to start, but then it stops and the following message appears: "Weblogic 9.0 Workspace Service service on Local Computer started and then stopped. Some services stop automatically if they have no work to do, for example, the Performance Logs and Alerts service." sometimes it stops right after starting without giving any messages.
    any ideas what's wrong with it&

    If I run from a cmd box it shows a successful start, however when I look at the services through the MMC it is not started. Basically, it starts successfully and then immediately shuts off stating the message in the original post. This is after and only after I apply sp7 for BEA 7. If I roll the server back to just v 7, I don't have a problem. I have downloaded V7 twice, and I get the same result. I have followed the install instructions to a T and still the same result. I have also tested removing the user created pages, and I get the same exact error telling me either it's a generic error or, SP7 has issues. The only reason we are rolling to SP7 is because of a security issue, but for the time being we have locked down the firewall. Any other suggestions? I have had my Maximo Administrator contact BEA, and MRO about this problem (Maximo is the only system we use web logic for) and they default to the answer that it is a java issue. That V7 is not supported above java 1.3.xxx which is bull because we were running version 1.4, due to a security issue with JVM 1.3 and all worked well. I have replicated the install with JVM 1.3xxx for BEA 7 sp 7, and that did not solve the problem either. Sorry for the long post I just wanted to try to get all the info out.
    Thank you for you time and consideration

    Turn off Windows update , follow this.
    Also go through this thread, try the suggestion from HP Expert @Nuccii 
    To do System recovery, follow this - try System refresh instead of Factory reset so that data, files and settings would be preserved. Nevertheless always backup all your data to an extrenal hard drive before doing any sought of recovery.
    System restore won't help if you've upgraded from Windows 8 to 8.1 & want to go back to 8.

  • I have a 64 bit Windows 7 laptop and can not access the itunes store.

    No error, just sits there saying "accessing itunes store".  Any ideas?

    Close your iTunes,
    Go to command Prompt -
    (Win 7/Vista) - START/ALL PROGRAMS/ACCESSORIES, right mouse click "Command Prompt", choose "Run as Administrator".
    (Win XP SP2 & above) - START/ALL PROGRAMS/ACCESSORIES/Command Prompt
    In the "Command Prompt" screen, type in
    netsh winsock reset
    Hit "ENTER" key
    Restart your computer.
    If you do get a prompt after restart windows to remap LSP, just click NO.
    Now launch your iTunes and see if it is working now.
    If you are still having these type of problems after trying the winsock reset, refer to this article to identify which software in your system is inserting LSP:

  • My email account has disappeared overnight.  Now a screen appears with several email options and I cannot access my email.  What happened?

    Why would the way I get my email change overnight?   I used to be able to access it immediately upon touching the mail icon.  Now a screen appears with several email account options.

    Does the account still show on the right-hand ide of Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars - and if it does if you tap on it and select it is Mail still 'on' for it ? If it's 'off' then changing it to 'on' should get the account to show in the Mail app again.
