You are using homegroup for your networking. Homegroup can sometimes suffer from slow downs and drops. You can verify this by setting up a new netwrok connection using the "workgroup" model. If the problem clears you can then just kill the homegroup and disable IPv6

Let us know if you need help.

thanks a lot for your fast reply ken,
Im m a moderate pc user, but i dont understand much about networking,
what is a homegroup in this case? because i never activated one in windows.
everithing was ok some days ago just noticed that IPv6 (that i dont know what it is sorry) now says no network access as shows in the pic
is there a solution? can be temporary?
thanks a lot

Click on properties button and you will see whether IPv6 is in play in addition to IPv4

Yes alex, exactly that, as others suggested, try unticking the IPv6

Thanks a lot for your answers, i will try this, will turning off ipv6 change anything in performance terms of the connection, torrents streaming etc?
