This is not causing any problems, I just don't know why.

I have an i7 on a Gigabyte GA-EX58-UD5, gigabit Linksys switch, Norton 2008 firewall, Vista 32bit, and 3 PCs (Vista, Vista, XP) in a LAN. Vista doesn't seem to think a LAN/switch is a real network? I can see all of the other PCs, connect to the internet (DSL) thru a switch connected Linksys wireless router, share files, and printers; but it's bugging me. Any experts with an idea? Should I care?

Do you have more than one nic on your computer? If so disable the one that is not being used. This should stop the notifications.

This message could result from the network cable not connected, a router or cable modem failure, or ISP problem.

I don't get this as an error message. I only get an information bar pop up when I look at my network places. The Vista Network sharing center gives me this screen.

It's just an aggravation, like I said, everything in the "non-network" works fine. I don't know why Vista doesn't consider a LAN a network. When I try to set up a network, the only option is a wireless network. I'm wondering if there is some Vista option I took in my new build.
