Hi all of you!
I have a Sony Vaio laptop with with Windows 7. It is directly connected at my workplace using a network cable to a local network, but I receive message “unrecognized network” and can not access internet. Several other computers which I also connect to the same network work fine, and have internet access with no problems. Going to the “LAN settings”, the “automatically detect settings” option is checked and selected. If someone has any suggestions I will appreciate it!
Thanks Ed <bond1897@yahoo.com>

I have never encountered this issue before, but would run the Internet Connection Wizard. It can be started form the Connections tab in Intenet Options.
If that doen't work,
hold the windows key and press r
in the text box, type cmd and press Ctrl+Shift+ENTER
in the elevated command window, type ipconfig/all>c:\ipinfo.txt
press ENTER
Close the Command Window
Open Computer
Open C:\
Open ipinfo
select and copy the text
paste it here
Good Luck

Opps! You will not be able to copy/paste since you have no internet connection. You will need to transfer the file to another computer (Flash Drive?) and post it from there.
Good Luck

You have a link-local v6ip and an APIP v4ip, that means that your system cannot reach a DHCP server. Were your other computers assigned an IP address by your network administrator?
The easiest way to resolve this issue (assuming there is a DHCP server) is to restart your computer. If you want to do it mannually, you would do this:
Hold the Windows key and press r
In the Run dialog box, type cmd and press Crtl+Shift+ENTER
In the elevated command window, type the following. press Enter after each line:
ipconfig/release
ipconfig/renew
If your office network has a DHCP server, it should issue you a new address.
If that doesn't work, you will need to look at the Local Area Network Adapter settings on a computer that works and see how it is set up. Let me know if we need to do that, and I'll walk you through it.

The computer was already turned off and on several times - with no success. If I try to do the same thing you suggested, and write the IPConfig in c:\ipinfo.txt, I receive message :Access is denied.
If I do the same, but with >D:\ipinfo.txt (where D: is the same physical drive), I get the following file:

OK. Did you re-enable the network adapter first?
click the start orb
In the search box, type the following and press ENTER: ncpa.cpl
right-click the wired LAN and select Enable
right-click it again and select Properties
Click Continue if a User Access Control window appears
In the properties window, click to highlight the TCP/IPv4 protocol
click on the Properties button
In the TCP/IPv4 properties window, write down any custom setting, and then select each of the bullets to obtain IP and DNS addresses automatically
click ok
click ok
close the network connections window
open an elevated command window (as we did before)
type the following and press ENTER: ipconfig/renew
type the following and press ENTER: ipconfig
(note that we left off the part that redirects output to a text file so the results will print in the command window. you should see an address that does not start with 169, an address for a dhcp server, a default gateway, and dns)
type the following and press ENTER: ping yahoo.com
If you get a request time-out, there is still a problem.
If not, open your browser and type yahoo.com into the address bar.
Good Luck

i seriously never had this problem but try using a wireless network to get you connected.
bond1897 0 Newbie Poster
Hi there!
There are no devices marked with a yellow exclamation mark or a red X. I have noted that the "Realtek PCIe FE Family Controller" is shown. Clicking it opens a window "Controller Properties", and in the "Device Status" window is the message "This device is working properly". I agree it is a puzzle. To the best of my knowledge, the wireless connection is working fine and I can connect to it, but do not at this moment have a valid userid and password for it - I have applied to have it renewed. However, I am leaving tonight for a week in Austria. I suspect I may have there a wireless network available, so I can try it there. By the way two weeks ago in Bournemouth - England the wireless connection worked just fine. I also have a ASUS Eee (I think they call it webbook?), which connected to the same network cable connects and works just fine. Well, thanks, it really is a mystery!
I appreciate your help!
bond1897 0 Newbie Poster
If I go to the Realtek Properties, and click update Driver, I get message "The best driver software for your devie is already installed". Do you think if I click Uninstall, will I be able to reinstall it, and do you think it might help the problem? Also in the device manager I get a list of more than a dozen of "Network adapters". What are all the other adapters for, and could I maybe switch to one of the others? Or could I have some hardware problem?

Here is a video that might help you http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y_38AoVtj50
Thanks for your reply - I am now for a few days away from my office so I can not try the solution described in your video. Let me however note that I have on my Sony VAio Windows 7 (I believe "ultimate" whatever that means), and also get the same "Unidentified Network" message. On the other hand with my ASUS Eee Webbook, which (I think) has Windows Vista?? I can connect (to the same network cable) without problems. But I'll try the solution in your video when I am back in my office! Thanks
techsheaven 45 Posting Pro in Training
I looked at the kids video, but he did not mention which protocol he installed. You may have malware that is installing rogue drivers. You can uninstall the drivers, but you will probably need to download the latest version from the manufacturer's website. Windows will recognize the missing driver, and may be able to install a generic driver, but even if it works, it should be updated for the best performance.
Good Luck
techsheaven 45 Posting Pro in Training
I found a solution on another site and remembered you.
First, follow the directions to get connection information automatically:
http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-vista/change-tcp-ip-settings
Second, make sure the following option is UNchecked (seems counter-intuitive):
From the Internet Explorer Tools menu, select Internet Options.
On the Connections tab, click LAN settings.
Uncheck Automatically Detect Settings
Click OK
Click OK
If you still have no connectivity, go back to the IPv4 settings and specify the correct Default Gateway.

I have the same problem, I'm using windows 7 and since this morning i have the unrecognized network, it worked fine yesterday and i didnt eveninstalled anything, any help would be apreciated, im using a dlink router to connect to a cable modem. thx
Oh and i also did everything you asked him to try with no success
ipconfig /renew doesnt work, it take 2 min and then specify that the dns server cannot be accessed. I'm lost

techsheaven 45 Posting Pro in Training
Start by unplugging your modem and router, and shutting down your PC.
Plug in the router and wait for the lights to come on (about a minute)
Plug in your Router so it can get a public IP.
Boot up your PC.
If you still can't connect, run CMD as Administrator type the following:
ipconfig
Post the first number in the IP address for your LAN adapter (should be 192).
Apv 0 Newbie Poster
it's 169, i did all that countless times already, I also tried a static ip to no avail. I tried a diffrent wire, one i also tried on my laptop (from where i can talk to you) my laptop can get online wireless and not. Its on xp of course.
So the problem is my desktop on windows 7 with no wireless capabilities.
I already updated my drivers, reinstalled everything but windows, cleaned registry, resettied winsock, updated the firmware of my router, and resetting him two times already. I tried to deactivate and active my network card a million times and it do nothing.
thanks for your help
I don't have the service quicktime, nor bonjour, i disinstalled my anti-virus and in fact anything i didnt use.
Theres one thing strange, when i release dhcp on my router, for a brief period of time (5 min) my connection work and then it rapidly go back to unindentified network.
techsheaven 45 Posting Pro in Training
You are not reaching the DHCP on your router is it enabled?
What static address did you try?
Can you ping the router? From elevated CMD prompt type "ping" followed by a space, followed by your routers address. If you are close to the router, you should get 0% loss. also, ping 127.0.0.1 which should be 0% loss
Can you connect wirelessly in other locations?
Is your router broadcasting an SSID?
Did you set the network type (Public, Work, Home)?
Does your wireless adapter control the configuration, or windows?
Can you connect via wired connection?
Apv 0 Newbie Poster
"You are not reaching the DHCP on your router is it enabled?"
Yes, its working when i use my laptop with xp
"What static address did you try?"
i tried 192.168.1.102, 103, 104 and 105, the router is set at starting adress 192.168.1.100 with 50 connection permitted. My laptop is 101.
"Can you ping the router? From elevated CMD prompt type "ping" followed by a space, followed by your routers address. If you are close to the router, you should get 0% loss."
all lost, it doesnt work.
"also, ping 127.0.0.1 which should be 0% loss"
Its working 0% loss
"Can you connect wirelessly in other locations?"
The computer that is not working doesnt have wireless, qith my laptop i can go anywhere, but its on xp. I really feel like windows 7 is the culprit.
"Is your router broadcasting an SSID?"
Its in mixt mode, but since its the wired connection who doesnt work, i doubt its important.
"Did you set the network type (Public, Work, Home)?"
That a other weird thing, its already on public, but when i try to put it in home it revert back to public after a while.
"Does your wireless adapter control the configuration, or windows?"
Again, the problem is the wired connection, theres no wireless on the faulty computer
"Can you connect via wired connection?"
No, that is what i'm trying to achieve, i was able until yesterday morning.
thanks

I realize that this is a long process, but we will get it resolved.
I have asked a lot of questions to clarify the issue in my own mind.
We know that you have not been able to contact the DHCP server on your router because you have an APIPA address. I assume that your router address is 192.168.1.1, and your DHCP pool starts at 192.168.1.100 and goes to 192.168.1.49. Your laptop is assigned to 101, and the router is set up to lease 50 IPs. you have not mentioned any other devices on the network, so I will assume there are none. You tried some static addresses inside the DHCP range. I normally assign static addresses outside the DHCP pool to avoid conflict (2-99), but you tried 2, 3, 4, and 5. Also, it would be a good idea (for this trouble) to set the static IP as the alternate address.
Have you tried connecting directly to the modem? This should give you a public IP address, and eliminate any issues with Network Address Translation (NAT), hardware firewall, and router IP lease times. If you have not tried this, and will, be sure to re-enable DHCP for TCP/IPv4, reboot the router, release and renew the IP address, and while you are in the elevated CMD prompt flush the DNS resolver cache with the following command:
ipconfig/flushdns
That would verify that the problem lies in Win 7 if it fails.
Let me know what you find out, I'll be here.
Apv 0 Newbie Poster
ok, i will try to give a ip adress outside of dhcp range
I tried to connect directly to the modem and the same thing happen, with the same ip adress. I called my internet provider and followed their instruction. He said that must come from inside the computer (hardware or software) So he cant help me.
I tried to flush dns a couple of time and it doesnt change anything
techsheaven 45 Posting Pro in Training
When you renew your IP address, take note of the Default Gateway; it should be the internal address of you router (192.168.1.1?).
You can specify the Default Gateway by specifying it when you set a static alternate IP.
Edited by techsheaven because: improved directions
Apv 0 Newbie Poster
No change. Im thinking about reinstalling windows, this thing is just too ridiculus. i dont even have a windows 7 disk...
techsheaven 45 Posting Pro in Training
So, connected to the router, you set the alternate configuration to 192.168.1.2 (or something in the range we talked about), Subnet Mask to 255.255.255.0, the default gateway to 192.168.1.1 (or whatever your routers internal address is, and the General tab settings to obtain IP and DNS settings automatically. Right?
The other test you did was to connect to the LAN port on the modem (same settings), hard reset the router, and renewed the IP on the PC. Right?
Do you have Bonjour service installed? Sometimes it will set the DHCP to 0.0.0.0 (that's why I asked). If you run the ipconfig command, and it is not the internal address of your router, you can issue the following command:
route delete 0.0.0.0
(or whatever invalid DHCP server is listed). You should renew you IP again.
If all of that still fails, you could try combofix from:
http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/download/anti-virus/combofix
You will have to save it to a flash drive or other media, and copy it to your PC. Right-click it, and choose "Run As Administrator." DON'T interrupt it until it is done, or get it from another site. It often will seem as though it has stalled, when it is still running.
While you are transferring things via a flash drive, also get Emsisoft Anti-malware, Avast (free version) and Ccleaner from Cnet:
http://download.cnet.com/Emsisoft-Anti-Malware/3000-2239_4-10292236.html?tag=mncol;1
http://download.cnet.com/Avast-Free-Antivirus/3000-2239_4-10019223.html
http://download.cnet.com/ccleaner/?tag=mncol;1
They are all free and great tools! Install each of them, run full scans (one at a time) with Emsisoft and Avast. Ccleaner is optional, but may help clean up your system. For more informationon how to use it, check it's help menus.

As jingda pointed out you probably need to make a new thread on this one since it has been so long since you posted. Some suggestion if you really wanna get this solved as well. As techsheaven pointed out to solve a networking problem much information is needed. You should provide a list of information rather than a once sentence reply of what you attempted. Some things you might include.
1. Operating System
2. Firewalls
3. Screenshots of network configuration and any errors you are recieving
And remember for any networking problem you want to be 100% sure that you have the physical layer working first!! All wired or wireless devices including the wires themselves must be proven to work or you will never see the network.
