Every time I reboot or shut down and restart my computer Vista loses the
network connection. Diagnose and repair reports back the IP and DNS needs to be re-established. When I tell it to obtain the addresses it creates a “second” network connection, which it then tells me I need to disable. Disabling one disables both so the next step is re-enabling the card. After re-enabling the card Vista refreshes the settings again, once more creating a “second” network connection that needs to be disabled, starting the cycle over again. After repeating this process several times a single network connection will final be established and everything works great until I need to shut down or reboot and the process starts all over. Any ideas? I’m running an HP system with an on-board nVida network controller connected to a Linksys router. |

Assuming you have latest firmware for the router and driver for NIC, you may
