The 08-14-07 Auto updates apparently changed some settings in my Newwork and
sharing center and I could not login until I ran diagnostic and asked for an
IP address and then it immediately connected but keeps trying to find a
public connection. The little circle in Vista keeps spinning but lets me
connect until I restart the computer and then there is an X by the network.
I am set to Private connection but it wants to make a public connecton. I
have to run diagnostics each time I start the computer. So, I went to
restore and restored to back to before the 08-14 updates. Had to use safe
mode to get it to work and the problem is gone, but so are the 10 updates of
08-14. Would be nice if the updates did not cause these problems and makes
me not want to install any updates if they cause all of these problems that I
see in the discussion groups. Does anyone at Microsoft have a clue as to
what update is messing with Networking and Sharing?
