"The Diagnostics Policy Service is not running"
I even tried to start it in the services screen with no luck it just stops again. The only thing I have changed recently is I changed my network type from public to home and it gave me all the home sharing information, but I even tried setting it back with no help. I even tried system restore to 15 days eairlier with not luck.
I thought it was my wireless router ( Dlink DIR-655 ), but i disconnected it and went straight to the modem and it still had the same connect problems. I have my computer hard wired throught the wireless router then the router to the modem then to cable line atm. I seem to be able to get it on the internet eventually but everytime I turn my computer on ,it is on the internet then it drops and comes back a few min. later. I have even tried manually starting the Diagnostics Policy Service with no luck it just won't work either.Any help is greatly appriciated!
My status says IPv4 Connect: Internet
IPv6 Connect: No Network access
Speed: 1.0 Gbps
if that helps.

When in doubt reset your router using the small hole on the side of the router which is right next too where the router gets it's power "I have the same router".
The IPv6 disconnected message is correct as it's only used on the LAN.
If that doesn't work open a command prompt and type ipconfig /release then ipconfig /renew, these commands are if you are using DHCP, if you are still having problems type ipconfig /all and post the results here.
