Unidentified Network And Connection Times Out
Oct 26, 2009
I was lucky (?) enough to get a Windows 7 party pack but so far have had nothing but network issues. I have completely given up on wireless - its hopeless. Driver support from belkin is pretty lame.
My issue now is that i am trying to connect my original (NOT 360) xbox to my PC via cable. Simple and straight forward enough? I thought so too. Not the case.
Obviously i use a program like flash fxp to transfer files across which was all good in both vista and xp, but now whenever i connect the cable in Windows 7, i get the "Unidentified Network" and connection through flashfxp times out.
Like i said, I am NOT trying to connect to the Internet (i have just spent £140 on getting a new line hardwired for that), just trying to connect my old xbox to my pc to transfer some music & movies over.
I have tried using both static and DHCP, and I'm currently on static.
I have tried changing the network type from public to home and then to work. - no dice.
I have tried disabling Homegroup as i have read on some forums. - no dice
I have tried 'Diagnosing' the connection many many times wiht no success.
I have the newest drivers for my motherboard. - ASUS P5Q-E
I have done clear a CMOS.
I'm not exactly an expert with computers but i know a bit and have been at this for days and read gods knows how many different forum posts, but nearly all refer to Internet issues, whereas I've given up on the wireless network.
I just want to transfer my music and movies to and from my xbox.
Can anyone gives this tired mind some fresh ideas?

I have installed Win 7 - Build 7100. It worked for 2 hours and since then all I get is the network icon in the bottom right with the yellow triangle. It states unidentified network - no internet access. It is a NVIDIA Network controller on a ASUS Striker II Extreme board.

A week ago I put together a new computer and installed Windows 7 Ultimate 64 Bit, every thingy installed just fine even the Ethernet drivers that came with the Motherboard disk installed ok, but I get 'Unidentified Network' for my network and only local connection. I have reinstalled the drivers many times. I am on another computer hooked up to the same router and modem, but it is running Vista instead, but the internet works just fine, and it is using the same cable as my other computer so it can't be the cable.
My computer Specs:
AMD Phenom II X6 1090T Black Edition Thuban 3.2GHz
MSI NF750-G55 AM3 NVIDIA nForce 750a SLI HDMI ATX AMD Motherboard
EVGA 1GeForce GTX 550 Ti (Fermi) [2x - Sli]

I had problems with my computer not connecting to the network sometimes after restarting my computer. That was usually fixed by simply unplugging and replugging into my outlet. I have a hard wire connection and my ethernet cable gets plugged into the wall and connects to the modem/router (whichever it is) from there. After I reset my computer this morning though, my computer has absolutely refused to connect to the network. I've tried resetting the router/modem and unplugging and replugging in my Ethernet cable. I noticed however in the network center it showed me connected to Network 8 (my standard home connection) for a few seconds but then it changes to unidentified public network and breaks connection to the Internet. Wireless is working fine and I'm infact typing all this on my iPhone 4.

I just got an Acer Predator. I transferred settings from XP using Windows Easy Transfer. The Internet connection was working perfectly. I installed Comodo Firewall, Avira AntiVir and ThreatFire. Then it could not connect. I plug the Ethernet cable into the XP computer and it connects no problem.I tried a system restore and it didn't fix it. I am running a thorough AviraAntiVir scan now on the Windows 7 system. I don't want to assume it is a virus, but the system was unprotected until I got the three security applications installed. I did also see some Comodo warnings and I approved going ahead because the security apps were installing at the time.

Basically my ethernet capability flew out the window ranomly the other day. Wireless works perfectly however.. before ...the other day.... it has been working solidly for almost a year Im plugged into a router which is running off my cable modem, both sitting less than a foot away from me. Also hooked up to the router is another computer, and my xbox the xbox works but the other computer cant seem to get a local connection either.
at first i assumed they were having an ip conflict of some sort, but why now after all this time?
I have tried:
- ipconfig /release - /renew
- abolishing bonjour
- taking the other pc completely off the router/network
- updating drivers.....rolling back the updates
- different cables different ports
-plugging directly into the modem
- and asking nicely
im on my laptop, Dell studio also the first time i noticed this happen was directly after having powered down the modem and router.
below is the ipconfig
Microsoft Windows [Version 6.1.7601]

My Toshiba Satellite L45d-s5976 suddenly started not connecting to the Internet via wireless router Linksys WRT 120N and motorola surfboard cable modem. It connects to the modem but I get "No Internet access" and at the top it says " Unidentified network" but underneath it shows being connected to the router but "NIA".roubleshooting instructs to cycle the modem which I have done several times, no help. The modem and router are good as we have an Acer netbook and two I phones connected to the Internet via the same router. I have gone over the forum and tried solutions for simuliar problems with no avail. This laptop and a Toshiba netbook we both Oliver in when we had a lightening strike 3 weeks ago. I gave up on the netbook and am trying to decide if I want to keep spending time on it.
PS please no comments on lighting protection. I have GE lighting protectors on the incoming power. The lighting came throughAn improperly installed cable connection which was not buried. The cable was not grounded and no fuseable link installedThe modem and router literally exploded and the strike jumped to the AC via the modem power supply and burned several wires and breakers.

Home network with Wifi and ethernet. Using 3x Notebooks and 3x workstations. One of the workstations (W7 ultimate) keeps changing between Public and Home. When this happens, the internet connection dies. I cannot see other workstations either when on public network. Workstation using wifi. Does the same on cable. When it changes to Public, it disconnects from the internet and I cannot get to the router even though it has the workstation has an IP(DHCP or static). Default gateway and subnet is correct. TCP v4 is being used and nothing else is enabled.
Why is this happening?
- I have tried DHCP as well as Static addresses
- Reconfigured NIC(Netgear WG311T), uninstalled and reinstalled it.
- Removed Wifi connection and re-added it.
- Changed auth type, encryption type and keys to connection
Have I covered everything? The only thing different is that I installed a new router - Duo Plus 300wr. It cannot be the router because all the other notebooks connect to it wireless and so does my iPad, Android device and tablet...so it rules that out?

Today, I managed to redecorate my bedroom; where my computer sat on top of a shaky, wooden desk. That desk is now gone, caput, and replaced by a much bigger, sturdier and prettier glass replacement.Before I dissasembled the computer to re-decorate, I was able to browse the internet at ease. There were no problems at all...However, after the new desk was setup - and all wires replaced in their correct slots, I find that I am unable to connect to the internet, or even the house's network! For the past year, I have been wired to the router using a RTL8168C(P)/8111C(P) Family PCI-E Gigabit Ethernet NIC. It was plugged into an extension cord, in my room, into the Ethernet port in the back of my computer. Downstairs, it's twin was situated no less than 2 feet away from the router - plugged into the first port.Now, when I boot up the computer, the network notification presents the following message: "Unidentified Network. No network access", and sometimes presents a yellow ! next to it. So, I am reduced to typing on my mother's laptop - which has no problems connecting to the network.I am able to use the ipconfig /release command, but unable to use the /renew - it hangs in the command prompt, then tells me that the DHCP server cannot be located. The IP, beforehand, was reverted to 169.254.223.117 - before all of this, I was 192.168.0.5?

I just moved to a new home, and i cannot connect to my local LAN ! I am on a Mac right now ( arghh ) and the Internet works fine on this one.
I am using a cable to a router, wich is connected to a modem. The router is fairly old but has always worked fine ( using a direct cable doesnt work aswell ). Windows 7 says it is connected to a 'Unidentified Network'. The ipv4 settings for the adapter are; Automatic ip/dhcp.
ipconfig gives an ipv6 address. The automatically generated ip is: 169.254.241.20. There is nothing at Default Gateway. The driver settings are correct, as far as i believe. I downloaded the latest x64 Windows 7 marvell yukon drivers.
I disabled sleep mode on my pc. I don't have the Bonjour service running. On the Mac, i only had to enable DHCP and it recognized the network correctly. These are the ip's that it got:
ip: 83.87.107.135
subnet: 255.255.248.0
router: 83.87.104.1
This is getting frustrating since i cannot see where the problem could be.
here are my specs;
Asus p5w DH Deluxe
win 7 ( 7600 )
q6600
2 integrated network adapters on the mobo: Marvell Yukon 88E8053 pci-e Gigabit Ethernet Controller

I have a Marvel Yukon ethernet controller, which is a wired connection only a few feet from socket. For some reason I lose connection at random times? I need to reboot to fix this. In event viewer there is the following:
"Yukonw7 Event 101 Driver status 1".
I am running the latest Marvel drivers by the way.

I have 2 different laptops. both running Windows7 and connecting to the internet wirelessly. within a few days of each other they both began to display "Currently connected to: Unidentified network No network access" and they will not let me get on the internet. It is not my router becuase It shows the same thing no matter where I try to connect. I have tried my gym and a local restaurant that I have always had success connecting to before. Furthermore my WindowsXP desktop is directly connected and is connecting to the internet without any problems. My laptops are both running AVG for antivirus.

Yesterday it worked and when I booted today it didn't I have absolutely no idea what the problem is and I have checked everything I know with no use.
- I am using d-Lan (PowerLan) and have had no problems with it until today.
- My router, modem and the d-lan devices are functioning properly which I have tested multiple times so I'm sure the problem lies with my computer.
- I have tried Troubleshooting with no effect
- It isn't an IP conflict
- It isn't a 3rd party program (I started it in safe mode, same problem)
- Internet still works over my W-Lan but is incredibly slow and unstable

For boxing day, I bought myself a new Computer case, a Cooler Master HAF 932. After setting it up and booting my computer, without any problems, my Internet would not work.
I attached the Network & Sharing Centre screen to show you what it says. I've tried many things, switching cables, direct input from modem (I use a router), and all sorts of guides that have similar problems.

I have got a desktop computer and a laptop at my home. I have got a single internet connection. So I added an extra NIC card to my desktop PC. Then I connected my desktop to the internet and then connected my laptop and desktop using a crossover network cable. Both my machines have got win 7 installed. So when I created the network my laptop identified the network and allowed it to me to choose between home, work and public networks. I am able to share the internet too. But my desktop keeps on saying unidentified network which prevents me from joining my home-group.

Ive just installed Windows 7 7600 HP on to one of our work PC's and it says its connected to an unidentified network. I cant change it to work network or even Home network but the strange thing is its working fine. All our other PC's can see it and share files on it etc and i have internet access on it.
This is the second time ive installed HP and the second time this has happened. In the past ive been using Ultimate and this didn't happen.
We use static IP addresses for our internal network with no DNS server.
Anyone got any ideas how i can change this network location. Im using HP as im testing it out for when my copy arrives in Oct but if this is a problem related to HP i might think again.

about a week ago I started to get an unidentified network issue on my laptop.
here is how it basically works. I will see the network i want to connect to, and click on it. after which it will tell me that it is taking awhile finding the network, and then connect me to a unidentified public network. and it will tell me to the left of that that I am connected to the network I tried to connect to, but I have no Internet access.
I have tried turning the adapter off and on, restarting and I have deleted bonjour, (I think) and can't figure out what it might be. help please?

I just bought anew Acer Laptop with Windows 7. When I try to connect it to my home network it shows a good signal strength but it will not connect me to it. I get a box saying it is an Unidentified Network. We have gone through all the normal internet connection paths and reset the router. We are able to access an Iphone with no problem. WE took this laptop to my sons house and could not access his home network either. Receiving the same Unidentified Network message when we tried. We called Acer and they wanted us to pay for a remote access to this brand new laptop. We refused. We will take the laptop back to the store first because that is not right.

About two months ago I had some money problems and was forced to move in with my dad. I have a 20GB Xbox 360 and Xbox Live. I knew my dad had the internet so I could still use Live.I have been doing so via an Ethernet wire going from my laptop (connected via wireless to the router) to the Xbox.

Windows 7 64-bit Home Premium
ACER Aspire X3400
Nvidia Nforce 10/100/1000 ethernet
Cable internet
SB1502 Cable modem
When I try to connect to the internet, it just says "identifying" then says it is an "unidentified network". I've tried:
Resetting the modem
Checked all cables
Uninstalled and reinstalled the drivers
Disabled & enabled the drivers
It's set to automatically connect to DNS
Updating the ethernet with the latest from Microsoft
Ran ipconfig /release and renew
Tried another modem and new cables
Tried other houses with DSL & Cable internet
I installed a USB wireless device which worked when I tested it in wireless areas. But so far nothing has worked for the wired part. At one point before all this started, the internet worked intermittently and would work at other houses perfectly. So I assumed it was my modem or connection at my house. But then I plugged another PC into my modem and it worked instantly. So I know there is no physical problem with my connection, modem or cables.

I decided to just post this as a new thread, as it appears to be getting positive results for most people. I highly recommend it anyway, as you will eventually encounter this if you apply all of your updates.For those of you reporting problems with your network after updating MS Office or installing Adobe CS3..If you are having Internet connection problems related to "Unidentified Network" showing and the "!" over your NIC icon, then this should take care of it: [code] If you do, stop it and disable it. It is actually the Bonjour DNS Responder Service, and I believe it is the cause of the "Unidentified Network."The Unidentified Network disappeared after stopping this service and a quick disable/enable of the NIC, restoring Internet access.I Actually just rebooted, edited this post, and then re-enabled the offensive service to see what would happen...Immediately after enabling the NIC and this bastard service, the "Unidentified Network" returned...stopped it, disabled it, disable/enable NIC...Internet back up and running and no "Unidentified Network." (woot - woot!)
I experienced this in both build 7100 and 7127...I am running 7127 now x64 - and discovered this fix just last night...so far so good just rebooted and then edited this post...I believe this fix will solve 7100 build issues too; however..I have not tested 7100 again yet.I also re-enabled Win 7's Discovery Mapping services, but always leave IPv6 disabled just because I am not using it.another two reboots, and a hard disk addition, and no problems with the Internet! - If you tried another fix such as changing the address of your network adapter, under "Advanced" - this is not necessary...I set mine back to "Not Configured." Everything is working fine as long as the Bonjour service is not running.. [code]
