    Local Area Connection - unidentified network
    « on: August 02, 2014, 07:56:48 AM »
    Hi Guys and Gals,

    So i have a problem trying to connect my PC Via Ethernet.

    wireless can connect but i'm wanting wired as the signal strength is poor and of cause wired is faster.
    ive never had wired connection on my PC and the problem has only just came about after moving home... i digress;

    so in network sharing its is showing my wired connection as unidentified public network -
    IPv4 Connectivity - no network access
    IPv6 Connectivity - no network access

    Now i have tried the following:

     - resetting router (i have fibre so reset both)
     - reset pc
     - uninstalled, reinstalled and udated drivers for Broadcom NetXtreme 57xx Gigabit Controller
     -  turned off firewall
     - turned of anti virus/anti spyware
     - manually assigned IP
     - automatically assigned IP
     - installed protocol on IPv 4 and IPv 6.
     - deleted network from my computer and reconnected.
     - changed my security settings to low/disabled then reset them back after no change.

    Their shouldn't be any problem if all H/Ws are in good condition.

    Try this :
    1. Check your Ethernet device is enabled and working fine
    2. Wire is not broken somewhere (mostly near the RJ-45 connecting pin)

    After this check these setting from Control Panel :
    Network and Internet -> Network and Sharing (here you should be able to see any possible solutions) -> Change Advance Sharing (check and modify all the necessary from here)

    And you may also want to check this :
    Network and Internet -> Network and Sharing -> Change Adapter Setting
    Right click on your Ethernet connection -> Properties
    And check those TCP/IPv4 and TCP/IPv6 (i have faced some connection problems when i was trying to Install/Uninstall those IP versions).

    Hope this will help

      Thanks for getting back to me.

      I agree i should have no problem connecting at all this is the first time i came across this problem not been able to solve using what i have already done (usually wireless)
      Yeah sorry there is no damage also tried a different ethernet cable as before i was using a cheap E45 cable i got from China or some where just because i needed 50m worth. so i went to maplins today and got a gold plated one thats 3meters and that still is having the same issue.

      As suggested i checked over and installed the ipv4/6 and still no luck,
      changed my advanced sharing settings,
      and even changed my home group as its a work version of windows i changed it to home.

      still nothing.

      Any other advice would be great but its looking like im stuck, though i am changing IP and getting a new hub so see what happens then i guess.

      Thanks again
