I discovered I have 3 network connections, rather than two. If the specifics for this third one sound at ALL familiar, please let me know what's going on.


Ethernet adapter Local Area Connection 2:

Connection-specific DNS Suffix . :
Description . . . . . . . . . . . : Microsoft TV/Video Connection
Physical Address. . . . . . . . . : 00-00-00-00-00-00
Dhcp Enabled. . . . . . . . . . . : Yes
Autoconfiguration Enabled . . . . : Yes
Autoconfiguration IP Address. . . : 0.1.0.5
Subnet Mask . . . . . . . . . . . : 255.255.255.255
Default Gateway . . . . . . . . . :


Just WHAT is going on here? Oh, and I copy/pasted directly from the ipcofig /all command results. The physical MAC and IP addresses, an the Subnet Mask are exactly what they say.

Do you have a USB webcam or something like that?

I have several USB devices, including printer, mouse, flash drives, and yes, webcam (Labtech)

I would guess that it's for the webcam, then, based on a little Googling I did, but I can't promise you 100% that I'm correct.

That;s odd, because that was the only time I ever saw it.
