Unidentified Network
I am running vista and a ethernet cable from Comcast cable modem to my desktop. Everything is working fine and I connect to the internet with no problem. Here is the issue. My son disconnected the ethernet cable and did some other work on the back and forgot to install the cable. tried internet wouldn't work so tried connect to network. Then realized cable was disconnected so re connected and everthing is fine. However, not in our file and sharing centerwe have two networks showing. the first is the normal one and the second says "unidentified" When I check status they are identical one is a clone of the other. When i check customize my regular connection shows private the unidentified shows public. Everything seems to work ok so I am afraid of messing with it. Does anyone have a simple and SAFE was of deleting this unidentified network? Does this unidentified network use resources to slow down internet connection? Should I just leave it alone? Its been two days since this happened so would system restore solve it? Thank you for any feedback.

It's not a problem. It can be disabled or deleted.

How do I disable or delete safely? Everything seems to be working OK so I don't want to risk messing anything up. Thanks for your input.

You can try disabling or turning off IPv6 and see if that helps.
