I have a Thinkpad T60, with an 11a/b/g/n wireless adapter, and Intel PRO
gigabit wired connection. I routinely travel back and forth between my home & work networks. Whenever I switch networks, and turn on, or resume from sleep, at the other location, I'm getting the Unidentified Network "extra" connection that limits access to Local Only. I've tried the: * changing power options on Ethernet adapter fix * editing registry for the dhcpconnbcastflag fix but nothing seems to work. This happens when I just put it to sleep, or just turn it off. Sometimes I can get around it by disconnecting from the network before shutting down/sleeping the system, then transporting, and reconnecting at the other location; sometimes not. It will happen with both wired and wireless connections. Any help would be greatly appreciated. |

Barb - Thanks for the suggestion, but on downloading that and attempting
install, I get the msg that the update doesn't apply to my system. "Barb Bowman" wrote: perhaps http://support.microsoft.com/default...b/933872/en-us ?
