Vista - There is more than one active network connection on this computer

10-10-2007

Hi,

I tried to connect to VPN and I got this error: "There is more than one
active network connection on this computer". When I checked the connection, I
don't have double connection at all. Can anyone help me how to resolve this?

Does the default gateway displays 0.0.0.0? Posting the result of ipconfig
/all may help. Or check this post for more details.

solved: Double Connection with default gateway 0.0.0.0

hey man,

i also had this problem and it was related to another common problem i
heard of where people couldn't connect to the net and were getting
'local access only'. my computer would be ok for a few minutes/seconds
after i connected to my isp and then i would get the 'local access only'
message. clicking on diagnose brought up the same message you are
getting about more than one connection. i would have to disconnect from
the still active connection and then reconnect only to have it happen
again. i THINK i have now solved the problem. i did this by turning off
the auto connect but now i can't remember the exact steps i took. i
noticed that it would always reconnect when i hadn't asked it too, so i
figured maybe it was auto dialling whilst i was connected and causing
the problem. there's a box that pops up on when you start windows which
asks you if you want to connect, or which service to connect to. i think
i did it from there. opened the options and chose 'never connect', and
when i want to connect i do it manually from the 'connect to' in the
start menu.
sorry i can't be more accurate. hope this helps

lol just noticed your original post is five months old. hope you have
sorted it all before reading this!
