I'm hoping someone can figure this out for me. I've never heard of this happening before.
So I have Win 7 (64bit home premium) installed with a foxconn mb that is plugged into a switch through its standard onboard 1gbps broadcomm network card with the standard updated drivers from their website. It's connected directly to my network switch. As far as I know nothing is odd about the setup.
Whenever I boot up my computer and it connects to its single network connection for some reason in the Network and Sharing Center it shows two fully active connections. It shows my Home Network and a second Public Network. Both connections are using the same card pulling the same ips and I don't have any network bridges or connection sharings turned on. It shows everything is fine with the connection with no errors and if I do a Diagnostic everything comes up fine. Yet I can't get online at all.
I fix it by...
Going to to the public connection details and disabling the network adapter. This disables both connections and I get an error. Then I do a diagnostic and it fixes it "Network Adapter is disabled. Enabling network adapter." It then pops up with only the Home Network connection and everything works fine...Until the computer gets restarted again.
This happens every single time and is getting really obnoxious. Any idears?
