Private Network Problem...

Dear All

I am a new guide here, and have a private network setting question.

I am using Vista X64 Business, and connecting to internet through HUB without IP sharing function. I set the local area connection to "Private" in "Network and Sharing Center". But it would change to "public" if I restarted the computer. Does anyone have any solution for it??

Thanks so much.

due to your connection i believe you will have to manually change it every time you reboot.

someone correct me if i am wrong.

Dear fadedrs

"Yes", I have to manually change the setting every time.
Do you have any suggestion for this problem, or anyone??

any reply is appreciate.

thanks so much

-what type of internet connection do you have
- do you have a public or private ip address

Dear nso5300

I am using ADSL with PPPOE, it means I have to dial up to get internet connection.
I have set the IP address to 192.168.0.2, and the subnet mask is 255.255.255.0.
I have turned off IPv6, just using IPv4

Should I offer more information ??

thanks so much and really appreciate for your replying.

try deactiving ipv6 and also the firewire interface and post the results

Dear nso5300

thanks for your help, first.

IPv6 is deactivated, and I don't have firewire connetction.
wireless connection is not activated, either.
But it still changed back to "public" if rebooted.

Any suggestions???

thanks so much

are you sure the necessary are running
-NLA
-Network List service
-SL user interface

Dear nso5300

How could I sure those services are running??
By Task Manager or Administrative Tool??

thanks so much.

go to the start orb and start orb and type services.msc and from there you can see if the services are running

those services are started and set to automatic, but I can't find SL user interface. It is just only "SL UI Notification Service". Is it correct service that you refer to??

yes this is the service i mean

Dear nso5300

I set the "SL UI Notification Service" to "started" and set it to "automatic", then did the same to others services you told me.

But nothing changed. The "Local Area Connection" still resets to "Public".

Does it have any unknown problems of vista business will cause this issue??

thanks so much.

these are the services that allow the network location (public, private, domain) to work

i think it is cause he has to dial into the network, that it keeps going into public

Dear nso5300.

thanks for your help, first.

I could set network location to "private", but it changed back to "public" when system restarted.

So, I could set it, but can not make it in "private" permanently.

How should I do, right now??

Dear fadedrs

thanks for your replying, first.

My dial up connection could always set to "Private" automatically, but my "Local Area Connection" could not.

Do you mean that if using dial up connection, the "Local Area Connection" would always set to "public", right??

correct for some reason your dial up connection into the network is setting it to public, not sure why but it is, not sure how to fix it, will look around and see what i can find.
