Cannot connect to homegroup due to multiple networks(that wont go away)
Im on Windows 7, Im connected to my wireless network and it works fine. But it also says im connected to a public unidentified network It wont go away and I cant seem to disconnect from it. Because its public, I then cant join my homegroup. http://i134.photobucket.com/albums/q118/kungfufreak360/Untitled-9.png Heres a picture. "Q" is my home network. Also for some reason, when I disconnect, both networks go away, but when I reconnect to "Q", the unidentified network comes back. http://i134.photobucket.com/albums/q118/kungfufreak360/Untitled-10.png Here we can see that for some dumb reason, it says both networks are the same or coming from the same source. Can anyone help me give me an idea of whats going on here? Thank you

give us an IPCONFIG /all with and without a connection. Is this an AD-Hoc network you are connecting to or do YOU have an access point
