    Network conflict on startup


    Very new to Win 7 and would appreciate some help....

    When I boot my machine, my network connections show a home network (which is my plugged internet connection) and an "unidentified network", both of which show as no internet access. The only way I have found to connect is to disable then re-enable the network adaptor. Once I do this it picks up the home network only and it connects perfectly fine. I attach a picture of what I am getting on first startup so you can see what i'm on about.

    I have no idea what this "unidentified network" is. I dont have a wireless card.

    Grateful if anyone could help...

    Thanks, Carl
