Default Unidentified Network Error

I'm by no means an expert either, but I have to ask.. Are you using a
wireless connection? I've seen "Unidentified Network" several times when
I've had my laptop set to connect to a certain wireless network that no
longer exists in my physical location. This is probably too easy to be
true, but have you tried disconnecting and reconnecting to your wireless
network?

dontk nwo a whole lot about computers or the lingo really... My internet
was working fine then all of a sudden it wasn't. I called my internet
service provider, the internet service tech people had me go into the
control panel, then the networks and some other things and it said
"unidentifiable network" they said that it is a glitch with Windows
Vista that they couldn't do anything that i needed to contact microsoft
(whom i called and they were going to charge me like 150dollars) I need
to fix this but i dont know how.... how can i fix this?

Posting the result of ipconfig /all may help. To do that, type cmd in the
start and double-click on the cmd.exe. Type ipconfig /all and press enter.
copy the result here.
