network connections confused
I have a computer with many network connections, probably too many but dont know what to delete or keep.
Not sure how I aquired these. My computer is hard wired through a wireless router into a modem, 4 mg connection. This is what I have got. INTERNET GATEWAY internet connection connected Internet connection LAN OR HIGH SPEED INTERNET 1394 connection connected,firewalled 1394 net adapter Local area connection aquiring network address, firewalled sis 900 based pci fast ethernet A........ Local area connection 2 network cable unplugged,firewalled Realtek RTL8139 family pci fast. It wont let me delete the one that isnt connected ? What do you think I should have activated and what can I delete if any ? Thanks |

Re: network connections confused
Hold the Windows key and press R, then type CMD to open a command prompt:
Type the following command: IPCONFIG /ALL Right click in the command window and choose Select All, then hit Enter. Paste the results in a message here. If you are on a machine with no network connection, use a floppy, USB disk, or a CD-RW disk to transfer a text file with the information to allow pasting it here.

Re: network connections confused
Hmm... I only see a single NIC recognized by Windows.
Hold the Windows key and press R, then type devmgmt.msc Under Network adapters, please tell me all the devices listed. Are there any devices under Network adapters that have a red x displayed? Also, are there any devices anywhere in the Device Manager display with yellow ? or ! displayed?

Re: network connections confused
Actually, the on-board one is not recognized by Windows, and you are using the SIS card.

Re: network connections confused
Your IPCONFIG only showed one connection.
