I have a linksys wireless g network that connects to my computer as multiple
networks one as the ssid i set my network up as, and another as an unidentified network. If i disconnect from one they both go away. The multiple network issue causes IE not to connect. Please HELP? |

What do you mean multiple networks? Do you mean the multihomed computer with two NICs? Post the result of ipconfig /all here may help.

You are correct, we have two computers in our network one is connected wired to the router and is running Windows XP and one is a wireless connection to the second machine which was recently upgraded to Vista Home. This is the machine I am having issue with. Per your request: Windows IP Configuration Wireless LAN adapter Wireless Network Connection: Connection-specific DNS Suffix . : Link-local IPv6 Address.....: fe80::a507:90cd:7eaa:c35b%9 IPv4 Address...........: 192.168.1.101 Subnet Mask...........: 255.255.255.0 Default Gateway..........: 0.0.0.0 192.168.1.1 Ethernet adapter Local Area Connection: Media State..............: Media disconnected Connection-specific DNS Suffix . : Tunnel adapter Local Area Connection*: Connection-specific DNS Suffix . : Link-local IPv6 Address.....: fe80::5efe:192.168.1.101%15 Default Gateway.........: Tunnel adapter Local Area Connection* 8: Media State...........: Media disconnected Connection-specific DNS Suffix . : "Robert L [MVP - Networking]" wrote: What do you mean multiple networks?

You may have multiple NICs, but the ipconfig shows only wireless connects. From the ipconfig result, I think you may have a routing issue. Can you post the routing table back? To do that, use this command line: route print.

Just a guess here, but from looking at what you've provided all of the
networks are the same. The second is a IPv6 networks and if you take a close look at the IP address you'll notice the IPv4 address embedded. I get real nervous when I hear things like "unidentified." Do you have a need for the IPv6 protocol? If not then I'd disable it in your network settings and see if that removes the unidentified network. "S Wright" wrote in message ...
