Always Disable Then Enable Network Adapter To Get Back Online?

Aug 12, 2012

My netbook is running Windows 7 Starter. It is an MSi U135. At random intervals (can be every few minutes to every couple of hours) my connection will show a 'limited connection' and I have to manually disable then enable the network adapter. As soon as I have re-enabled it again the internet will connect. Sometimes it will force me to restart the netbook for it to connect again.

I have tried the following:
- Disabled firewall.
- Uninstalled antivirus.
- Reinstalled the network adapter.
- Completely removed the adapter driver from the system, then downloading one from the Msi website and installing the new driver.
- Changed the router channels to a few different channels.
- Made sure the box which says something like 'allow this device to turn off to save power' is unchecked.

I have tried the ipconfig /renew in CMD as an admin. Also tried the ROUTE 0.0.0.0 command (read somewhere this could fix it). I ensured I didn't have 'bonjour' on the system as I have read this can cause it too.
I even tried reinstalling the OS too. None of the other netbooks in the house does this. (One running Windows 7 Starter and one on XP)

Change Network Location For LAN?

May 19, 2009

I currently have my Xbox 360 connected up to my Laptop via Ethernet and I am having a problem with streaming videos and music. Everything else works fine, it connects to Xbox Live etc, and connects to the Laptop and finds the video files, it just won't play them. It gives the error:

'The connection to your computer was lost. Make sure your computer is turned on, connected to the network, and running media sharing software.

Status Code: 53-C00DF238'

I can't find much information about this error apart from one person stating that the ethernet connection to their Xbox had made itself public rather than private and could fix it by changing it to private again.

This is where I'm having a problem. The connection is showing up as an unidentified network with no internet access and as a public network. I can't figure out how to change it to a private network, there just doesn't seem to be an option.

Everything else on the laptop is working fine, my firewall is configured correctly, media player 12 is sharing correctly, the homegroup is set up etc. It just won't stream the video and the only thing I can think of now is that it needs to be a private network in order to allow streaming. I just can't change it.

I have attached a screenshot of my network & sharing centre to show you how it won't let me change the network location type.

Unidentified Network - Cannot Change Name Or Location

May 5, 2009

I'm trying to establish a home network between my 2 computers both running win 7 7100 (main is x64, secondary is x86). they are connected directly with an Ethernet cable. my main computer shares its Internet connection with the secondary computer (thus mains ip address for that connection is static, secondary is dynamic, assigned by dhcp).

my main computer does not recognize the network connection between the 2 computers - it shows up as an unidentified network and i cannot change its name or location (it's stuck at public).

is there any way to get my main computer to recognize the network without adding any hardware?
