I'm gonna assume your talking about my laptop that I'm on now that is having these issues? My laptop is a Toshiba Satellite L455-S5975...you can look in my specs for anything else I believe...other than that new Network Adapter I downloaded last week.

Ok when I pushed the FN key with any of the F1 or whatever keys there was a light that lit up by the number 8...and when I pushed the FN key with the F3 or 4 not sure which one...it put my laptop to sleep...screen went black and had to move my mouse to wake it up and then click my photo to open it up again. So then I clicked the FN with the F8 key and nothing changed in the Network and Sharing screen...

No it did come on but no changes in the Network and Sharing center

The problem has to be a Setting in your Router .. As we have ruled out every thing else .. If it is ok with you i will look at your Router Settings tomorrow and hopefully resolve the issue ... As it is getting late here near 1am and have an other start tomorrow ...

No problem at all. I was just wondering if it could be my Network adapter? Maybe it's missing stuff? Like when I look at others I see so much more than what mine says...if that makes sense lol...
