Default Enable Local Area Connection

Problem:
This is annoying and embarrassing. I am running Vista Ultimate on a MSI 865
GV mother board, on board LAN, Realtek RT8139/810Xfamily. I lose my
internet.network connection when I reboot. To regain these I must “DISABLE”
then “ENABLE’ my “LOCAL AREA CONNECTION”. The status changes from
“Unidentified network, name of network” to “Disabled” to “Name of Network”

Constraints:
This is definitely NOT a modem/router problem. Any/all other computers
(dozens of Vista, XP, Tiger, Ubuntu) connected to the router continually or
at random connect immediately to the internet.

So;
1) What does Local Area Connection effect?
2) Why doesn’t my machine automatically “enable’?
