See Fix Windows 7 Network Connection Stuck In Public Mode - gHacks Tech News
If it is not obvious the link to fixit - http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2578723/
It is the same if you turn off the wifi, also can you fill out your system specs as per the guide in my signature. Then please post a pic of the adapters and your details for your lan one like below. EDIT: try Gokay's method first, I thought that your issue may be something else though.
Why hide the local IP/MAC addresses? They mean nothing for anyone and not disclosing any vital info. :)
This bit is not same as disabling wireless:
- In the lower left side of the dialog box, click Choose homegroup and sharing options.
- Click What is a network location?, and select your network location.
Note If you want to continue setting up a homegroup, follow the remaining prompts. But a homegroup isn’t required, so you also can simply exit the homegroup setup after you select the correct network location.
Thank you everyone problem solved.
Ok, since not very obvious from your post :) could you change to Home network and did it also fix no connection
issue?
I see your last post now, I was typing as you posted.
Glad it worked!
Well I restarted the laptop and now I am back to where I started. I haven't got a clue why it's doing this. This time I fixed it the same way as last time, but ran the fix it tool. I don't know if it just said it has been changed to Home Network, because I had it fixed to home network. So after the fix it tool. I restarted the computer and it's back to Public network with no internet! I don't Know how to get all the specs you are talking about it's a Dell 1545 Inspiron running windows 7 professional.
